Argument

The reason why I have chosen this theme is because I was very interested to know a lot of
things about the history and the geography of London and also to know who the Henry Fieldings
life was and what he wrote during his life.
In the first chapter I wrote about London called by some writers A great and monstrous
thing . London was generally believed, not only one of the most Ancient, but the most Spacious,
Populous, Rich, Beautiful, and Noble Citys that we knows of at this day in the World. When I
consider this great city in its several quarters and divisions, I look upon it as an aggregate of
various nations distinguished from each other by their respective customs, manners, and
interests. Another aspect very important for this city is the populations. Just why Londons
nations proved so populous is easier question to answer than how many Londoners there were.
Also I can affirmed that London was the kingdoms center of world trade, of the emerging
banking, brokerage and insurance industries, of finished commodity manufacture not only
metropolis but for the nation, for European competitors, for the empire and for the world.
In the second chapter I speak about the most important and powerful Fieldings work
Joseph Andrews in first part, and in the second part I wrote about Henry Fielding life. A key
moment in Fieldings first novel finds Parson Adams holed up, reading his beloved manuscript of
Aeschylus. At once Joseph Andrews, on his way home to see Fanny and providentially located in
the next room, appears and lovers are for the time being reunited. We also must think about this
moment in relation to Henry Jamess point, in the classical essay The Art of Fiction, and where
no essential distinction between novels of incident and novels of character is. About Fieldings
life I can speak a lot of time but I will be very concrete. His father, Edmund Fielding, was the
son of a younger son of a seventeenth-century Earl of Desmond, whose family claimed with the
imperial Habsburg dynasty. Henrys mother, Sarah, was daughter of Sir Henry Gould, who had
succeeded in a more prosaic but no less powerful profession, rising to be one of the most
distinguished lawyers of his time.

In the last chapter I speak about the other Fieldings work called Amelia. When Amelia
was first published, Fielding was at the height of his fame, both as the energetic and
conscientious Bow Street magistrate for Westminster and Middlesex, and like a novelist whose
only equal was his great rival, Samuel Richardson. There were Dublin reprints, translation into
Dutch, French, and German. Amelia has a big success and Millar ordered the extraordinary
number of 5.000 copies for the initial printing. He still had copies to dispose of in 1759, by
which date the Beauty of the Impression must have been somewhat faded. As its title
announces, Amelia differs is one obvious respect from Fieldings previous novels: Joseph
Andrews, Jonathan Wild and Tom Jones. Fieldings first critics did not object to the new
direction that his novel was taking, but they found a plethora of other shortcomings. Perversely,
the single most prominent failing was held to be the heroines lack of a nose. In Book II of
Amelia, Captain Booth tells his companion Miss Mathews about his wifes unfortunate
carriage accident.
In conclusion Amelia was indeed to be Fieldings last novel; the most famous and full of
interests of his work and also was the work of his final years were non-fictional.
The all history of London in the eighteenth century, the life of Henry Fielding, and all of his
works make Fielding like men as the best exemplars of fictional practice to the detriment of
women novelists reputations. Fieldings comments on foolish modern novels and romances
served to distinguished by contrast a learned tradition of fictional history for which male writers
like himself would set the standards.
