About this ebook

Der hier vorgelegte Text ist nicht nur die erste deutsche Übersetzung, die jemals von Henry Fieldings Kurzroman "An Apology for the Life of Mrs. Shamela Andrews", kurz "Shamela" genannt, angefertigt wurde, sondern die erste Übersetzung in eine Fremdsprache überhaupt. Das Buch erschien im April 1741 als eine satirische Attacke auf Samuel Richardsons Briefroman "Pamela, or Virtue Rewarded", der seit seiner ersten Veröffentlichung im November 1740 in England eine Furore machte, wie sie in der Literaturgeschiche wohl einmalig ist, und auch auf dem Festland hohe Wellen schlug.

Henry Fielding

Henry Fielding (1707-1754) was an English novelist, dramatist, and prominent magistrate. He was born into noble lineage, yet was cut off from his allowance as a young man and subsequently began a career writing plays. He wrote over 25 dramatic works, primarily satires addressing political injustice. When Fielding's career as a playwright ended with new censorship laws, he turned to writing fiction. His work as a novelist is considered to have ushered in a new genre of literature. Among his best known masterpieces are The Life and Death of Jonathan Wild (1743) and The History of Tom Jones (1749).
