Shamela

Fielding, Henry, 1707-17542013
Audiobooks
'Shamela' is Henry Fielding's biting and hilarious response to 'Pamela' by Samual Richardson. 'Pamela' is the story of a young country maid whose master continually makes many improper advances on her. We see her attempts to ward of his advances and her virtue is eventually rewarded by her marriage to her master. Throughout the work Pamela is seen as a complete innocent, utterly naive in the ways of the world. In 'Shamela' we learn from the letters Shamela writes her mother that this was not quite how things were. Shamela (that is revealed to be the real name of Pamela) completely plans it all out.
