    The History of Tom Jones, a Foundling, often known simply as Tom Jones, is a comic novel by the English playwright and novelist Henry Fielding. The novel is both a Bildungsroman and a picaresque novel. The main theme of the novel is the contrast between Tom Jones’s good nature, flawed but eventually corrected by his love for virtuous Sophia Western, and his half-brother Blifil’s hypocrisy.

  • 亨利·菲尔丁(1707年4月22日-1754年10月8日)18世纪最杰出的英国小说家、戏剧家。18世纪英国启蒙运动的最大代表人物之一,被沃尔特·司各特称为“英国小说之父”,是英国第一个用完整的小说理论来从事创作的作家。主要作品有《堂吉诃德在英国》、《历史纪事》、《大伟人江奈生·魏尔德传》、《约瑟夫·安德鲁斯传》等。

    Henry Fielding (22 April 1707-8 October 1754) was an English novelist and dramatist known for his rich earthy humour and satirical prowess. Aside from his literary achievements, he has a significant place in the history of law-enforcement, having founded (with his half-brother John) what some have called London’s first police force, the Bow Street Runners, using his authority as a magistrate.
