Аннотация

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.

Das Buch handelt von einem perfekten jungen Liebespaar, dessen Heirat jedoch aus Standesdünkel, Egoismus und Eifersucht von verschiedenen Seiten zu verhindern versucht wird. Spannung und Komik sorgen dafür, dass sich Tom Jones seit über 250 Jahren als Meilenstein der Romanliteratur frisch und lebendig erhalten hat.
