17521278641752. First Edition. FIELDING Henry. Amelia. London: Printed for A. Millar 1752. Four volumes. Small octavo early 20th-century full tan calf raised bands elaborately gilt-decorated spines brown and russet morocco spine labels all edges gilt. $3000.First edition of Fieldings final novel his landmark work that introduced the novelistic tradition of social protest and reform. Handsomely bound by Riviere and Son.Fielding's last novel Amelia shows the ""mellowness pathos and insight"" of a mature writer whose humor and ""realistic frankness shocked the 19th century but delighted his century and delights ours Fielding stands at least shoulder to shoulder with the great Victorian novelists whose spiritual father he was"" Kunitz & Haycraft 190. ""An innovating master of the highest originality"" Fielding's comic epics were ""the first modern novels in English"" Drabble 348. Samuel Johnson lavished unexpected praise on the novel for though he earlier called the ""author of Tom Jones 'a blockhead' and a barren rascal"" he read Amelia through at one sitting and observed that this was a publishing event so anticipated that it was ""perhaps the only book which being printed off betimes one morning a new edition was called for before night."" Johnson's story about Amelia's publication and the novel's immediate popularity was not however entirely accurate. Yet the anecdote was so popular that it was ""accepted by every student of the novel's publishing history until 1953 when in a deft piece of bibliographical analysis Professor Todd in ""Three Notes on Fielding"" set the record straight. Johnson's account squares not at all with the printing history of Amelia"" Battestin lvii xlviii. For despite subsequent critical praise that views Amelia as a forerunner of realism and a work that ""established the tradition of the novel of social protest and reform"" Johnson's high regard did not reflect the general response of the time Battestin & Probyn eds. Correspondence of Henry and Sarah Fielding vi. ""The audience at mid-century was ill prepared either for the kind of realism Fielding here attempted or for the disturbing moral and social purpose it was calculated to serve Even those who wished him well were puzzled and a little embarrassed that he could so willfully disregard the proprieties of polite literature"" Battestin liv-lv. ""Amelia was published on Thursday 19 December 1751 a day later than originally expectedthough in accord with the usual printer's practice in the period for works not ready to be issued before November the title-page carries the date of the ensuing year 1752"" Battestin xlvii. Due to the expected high demand for the novel two printers were used: William Strahan for Volumes I & III and an unknown printer for Volumes II and IV. Minor press variants exist with no distinguishing characteristics noted and no priority established. Two impressions of the first edition were made one in December 1751 the other in January 1752. Copies are reported to exist in two states with no precedence confirmed: i.e. that of an uncorrected inner forme backed by a corrected outer forme or a corrected inner forme backed by an uncorrected outer forme.

AN ESPECIALLY PRETTY SET OF FIELDING'S LAST NOVEL the product of "a Fielding touched with tears yet as much in love as ever with nobility and generosity of character and equally full of interest in men and women" Cambridge Hist. of English Literature X p. 37. It is also considered by many to be the first significant novel of social protest and reform in English. It contains many allusions to classical literature and focuses on the theme of marriage and feminine intelligence but Fielding's stance on gender issues cannot be determined because of the lack of authorial commentary discussing the matter.<br> From the library of Cullen House. There were two impressions of the first edition one on 19 December 1751 the second in January 1752; no distinguishing characteristics have been recorded. Rothschild No. 853.
