Introduction: The 1740s and 1750s were a formative period for the English novel, marked by a famous rivalry between Samuel Richardson and Henry Fielding, whose works defined key early directions for the genre (the epistolary novel and the comic epic in prose, respectively).
Information Booster:
· Pamela; or, Virtue Rewarded by Samuel Richardson ignited the trend. Published in 1740, it was a sensational success and established the detailed, psychological epistolary novel.
· Joseph Andrews by Henry Fielding began as a parody of Pamela but grew into its own robust narrative. It was published in 1742.
· Amelia is Henry Fielding's final novel, a more somber and domestic work, published in 1751.
· The History of Sir Charles Grandison is Samuel Richardson's third and final novel, published in 1753-54, presenting his model of the "good man" as a counterpart to his earlier heroines.
