Barnes & Noble Classics pulls together a constellation of influencesbiographical, historical, and literaryto enrich each reader's understanding of these enduring works. 0in 0in 0pt">Reacting against the sentimentality and moralism of the earliest English novels, Henry Fielding chose to create a work whose main character contains all the complexities of a real human being: the foundling Tom Jones. Tom has been raised by the Squire Allworthy to love virtue, and he truly wants to do good. But Tom’s inability to control his temper and his hearty appetite for food, drink, and the opposite sex get him kicked out of Allworthy’s estate and separated from his one real love, Sophia Western. So he begins a journey from the English countryside to the teeming city of London. Along the way he meets a parade of colorful characters, enjoys a series of bawdy, comic adventures, eventually discovers his true parentage, triumphs over the villainous Blifil, and rejoins the beautiful Sophia.
Soon after its 1749 publication, Tom Jones was condemned for being lewd,” and even blamed for several earthquakes. But what really riled its critics was its supremely funny satirical attack on eighteenth-century British society and its follies and hypocrisies which, of course, are very much like our own.
Ross Hamilton is Assistant Professor of English and Comparative Literature at Barnard College, where he specializes in eighteenth-century and romantic literature. His book, The Shock of Experience: A Literary History of Accident , is forthcoming.

1707年菲尔丁生于英国萨默塞特郡,就读于伊顿公学。他的妹妹后来也成为了著名作家。菲尔丁写了一部浪漫小说,却因此引起了官司,之后他前往伦敦继续写作。1728年菲尔丁前往荷兰莱顿学习,回到英国之后,他开始为剧院创作剧本。他当时的一些作品对当时沃尔波尔爵士领导的英国政府进行了辛辣的讽刺,特别Golden Rump一剧,作家的讽刺功力初露锋芒,但也导致了1737年政府宣布实施剧院许可证法案。
这一法案使得上演的剧本时刻受到怀疑,在舞台上讽刺政治已经不再可能。菲尔丁因此退出剧院,重操法律旧业。1748年他成为米德尔塞克斯和威斯敏斯特的治安官员。
后人称菲尔丁为英国现实主义小说的创始人,的确有道理。但我更注意到的是菲尔丁作为一个欧洲文学的集大成者的身份。在这部小说中,在行文过程中引用了大量的前辈的原句以及典故,更重要的是融合了从古希腊神话以来的文学性作品所表现的各种母题,在母题的集合之下有所创造。如...

评分我是在微信读书上看的,可惜是个简版。好处是一天就看完了。这让我有点小开心,忙里还能看完一本书。 由于是简版,所以故事进展神速,没有太多细节委婉的描述,一抬眼往往情节已经走了十万八千里。我要再找时间去看全文版。 如果这书给我什么感觉,那就是行文的转角多,埋伏多...
评分请政府花十万元登报道歉 □/徐强 在《弃儿汤姆•琼斯的历史》一书的开场白中,亨利•菲尔丁谈到了作家和读者的关系。他说:“一个作家不应以宴会的东道主或舍饭的慈善家自居,他毋宁应该把自己看作一个饭铺的老板,只要出钱来吃,一律欢迎。”为什么呢?因为如果作家是“...
