Joseph Andrews, publicado por primera vez en 1742, es una parodia de Pamela de Samuel Richardson. La novela de Fielding está poblada de mujeres lascivas, ladrones, hipócritas y tontos en general. A medida que seguimos a los personajes en sus viajes, lo que se desarrolla es una animada sátira panorámica de la Inglaterra de mediados de la época georgiana.

Henry Fielding was an English writer and judge known for the use of humour and satire in his works. His famous novels include Shamela (1741), Joseph Andrews (1742), The History of Tom Jones, a Foundling (1749) and Amelia (1751). Along with Samuel Richardson, Fielding is seen as the founder of the traditional English novel. As well as being a novelist, Fielding was also a playwright, known for his satirical comedies The Author's Farce (1730), Tom Thumb (1730), The Letter Writers (1731) and The Tragedy of Tragedies (1731). He also played an important role in the history of law enforcement in the United Kingdom, using his authority as a magistrate to found the Bow Street Runners, London's first professional police force.
