About this product
“Shamela” is a parody of Samuel Richardson’s “Pamela”, in which a virtuous servant girl long resists her master’s advances and is eventually ‘rewarded’ with marriage. “Joseph Andrews”, Fielding’s first novel, can also be seen as a response to Richardson, as the lascivious Lady Booby sets out to seduce her comically chaste servant Joseph.
