Synopsis of The Vicar of Wakefield
El vicario de Wakefield, el Dr. Primrose, pierde su fortuna debido a una inversión desastrosa y se ve obligado a mudarse con su familia a una vivienda empobrecida en la finca de Squire Thornhill. En busca de su hija, que ha sido seducida por el libertino Squire, Primrose se ve envuelto en una serie de desventuras, encontrándose con su hijo perdido en una compañía de teatro itinerante e incluso pasando tiempo en una prisión de deudores. Sin embargo, Primrose, aunque obstaculizado por su ingenuidad y orgullo, se mantiene firme gracias a su fe religiosa inquebrantable. En El vicario de Wakefield, Goldsmith se burla suavemente de muchas de las convenciones literarias de su época, desde la pastoral y el romance hasta la picaresca, infundiendo a su historia de un desventurado clérigo un cálido humor y una amable sátira social.

Oliver Goldsmith
Oliver Goldsmith was an Anglo-Irish poet, novelist, playwright, and hack writer. He produced literary works in a variety of genres and is regarded as one of the most versatile writers of the Georgian era. His works are known for their realistic depictions of British society, and his comedy plays for the English stage are considered second in importance only to those of playwright William Shakespeare. Credited with introducing sentimentalism in English literature in 18th-century Great Britain, several of Goldsmith's publications are popular classics of the period, including his only novel, The Vicar of Wakefield (1766), and the comedy play She Stoops to Conquer (1773).
