Sumérgete en la Inglaterra del siglo XVIII con 'Joseph Andrews y Shamela' de Henry Fielding. Esta edición de Oxford World's Classics presenta tanto 'Joseph Andrews' (1742) como 'Shamela' (1741), una parodia audaz de 'Pamela' de Samuel Richardson. 'Joseph Andrews' evoluciona de una simple parodia a una obra con raíces en Cervantes y Marivaux, explorando la corrupción en la sociedad, la política y la moral de la época. Esta edición revisada incluye una nueva introducción de Thomas Keymer, que sitúa las obras de Fielding en sus contextos críticos e históricos.

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.
