'Kissing, Joseph, is but a Prologue to a Play. After being sacked for spurning the lascivious Lady Booby, Joseph takes to the road, accompanied by his beloved Fanny Goodwill, a much-put-upon foundling girl, and Parson Adams, a man often duped and humiliated, but still a model of Christian charity. Can I believe a young Fellow of your Age and Complexion will be content with Kissing?'Joseph Andrews, Henry Fielding's first full-length novel, depicts the many colourful and often hilarious adventures of a comically chaste servant.
Together these works anticipate Fielding's great comic epic Tom Jones, with their amiable good humour and pointed social satire.Judith In the boisterous short tale Shamela, a brilliant parody of Richardson's Pamela, the spirited and sexually honest heroine uses coyness and mock modesty to catch herself a rich husband.
