Fielding's career as a dramatist has been shadowed by his fame as a novelist, who undertook the duty of writing comic epic poems in prose � Fielding once described himself as "great, tattered bard." "When I'm not thanked at all, I'm thanked enough; I've done my duty, and I've done no more." (from Tom Thumb the Great Henry Fielding was born at Sharpham Park, Somerset. He was by birth a gentleman, close allied to the aristocracy. His father was a nephew of the 3th Earl of Denbigha, and mother was from a prominent family of lawyers. Fielding grew up on his parents farm at East Stour, Dotset. His mother died when Fielding was eleven, and when his father remarried, Henry was sent to Eton College (1719-1724), where he learned to love ancient Greek and Roman literature. During this period he also befriended George, later Lord, Lyttelton, and William Pitt, later Lord Chatham. To Lyttelton, his old school friend, who helped him from the late 1740s, Fielding dedicated the novel THE HISTORY OF TOM JONES, A FOUNDLING (1749). After Eton, he attempted to elope with his cousin Sarah Andrew. However, Fielding's sharp burlesques satirizing the government gained the attention of the prime minister Sir Robert Walpole and Fielding's activities in theater was ended by Theatrical Licensing Act - directed primarily at him.

Born of a distinguished family, he was educated at Eton and studied law at Leiden. Settling in London in 1729, he began writing comedies, farces, and burlesques, the most notable being Tom Thumb (1730), and two satires, Pasquin (1736) and The Historical Register for 1736 (1737), which attacked the Walpole government and provoked the Licensing Act of 1737. This act, setting up a censorship of the stage, ended Fielding's dramatic career and turned him to the less inhibited form of the novel. In that genre he achieved his greatest success, beginning with his first novel, Joseph Andrews (1742), which started simply as a burlesque of Samuel Richardson's sentimental novel Pamela but developed into a great comic creation. He followed with Jonathan Wild (1743), the history of a superman of crime, which has been called the most sustained piece of irony in English. His masterpiece is

Works Bio-Bibliographical Note Acknowledgements Usage Henry Fielding's Works Joseph Andrews Tom Jones A Bio-bibliographical note about Henry Fielding "Henry Fielding (1707-1754) was born at Sharpham Park in Somerset in 1707. In London, between 1729 and 1739, he wrote some twenty-five dramatic pieces including a series of topical satires which lampooned Sir Robert Walpole and his government. It was partly as a reaction to these that Walpole introduced the Stage Licensing Act in 1737, which effectively ended Fielding's career as a dramatist. "His novel writing career began with Shamela in 1741, a burlesque written in reaction to what he saw as the smug morality propounded by Richardson's Pamela . In the following year he published his own alternative conception of the art and purpose of the novel, Joseph Andrews , which achieved immediate popularity. "His masterpiece Tom Jones , one of the great comic novels in English literature, was published in 1749. Partly in recognition of his work as a political journalist Fielding was commissioned as a justice of the peace for Westminster and, despite his rapidly degenerating health, he devoted the last years of his life to fighting crime. He died in Lisbon on 8 October 1754."
