具体描述
Fifteen-year-old Pamela Andrews, alone and unprotected, is relentlessly pursued by her dead mistress’s son. Although she is attracted to young Mr B., she holds out against his demands and threats of abduction and rape, determined to defend her virginity and abide by her own moral standards. Psychologically acute in its investigations of sex, freedom and power, Richardson’s first novel caused a sensation when it was first published, with its depiction of a servant heroine who dares to assert herself. Richly comic and full of lively scenes and descriptions, Pamela contains a diverse cast of characters, ranging from the vulgar and malevolent Mrs Jewkes to the aggressive but awkward country squire who serves this unusual love story as both its villain and its hero.
This edition incorporates all the revisions made by Richardson in his lifetime. Margaret A. Doody’s introduction discusses the genre of epistolary novels, and examines characterization, the role of women and class differences in Pamela.
作者简介
Samuel Richardson (1689-1761) was born in Derbyshire, the son of a joiner. He received little formal education and in 1706 was apprenticed to a printer in London. Thirteen years later he set himself up as a stationer and printer and became of the leading figures in the trade. He printed political material, newspapers and literature. He began writing Pamela as a result of a suggestion from friends that he should compile a book of model letters for use by unskilled writers. Pamela was a great success and went on to write Clarissa, one of the masterpieces of European literature.

评分现在看此书的意义与其在关注婚前的贞洁，还不如更反映当时的英国社会现状以及婚姻观。 帕梅拉是Ｂ先生妈妈的女仆，按阶级等级是无论如何不可能与Ｂ先生结婚的，这还不似《傲慢与偏见》。而最初先生也只是打算让其做情妇。不过这在清教徒风气的英国，至少在正派人之中是不可能的...
评分One of the finest novels of psychological realism. A fairytale fantasy with an underlying critique of class issues. Pamela in volume one could be seen as a rebel against the patriarchal power and authority. Richardson's emphasis on Pamela's virtue serves as...
