The Domestic Novel.

Tho domestic novel may be said to have
begun when the worthy printer Of Derby
published his History of Pamela" The
way that the idea of writing such book
occurred to him is significant. He had
been asked by bookseller TO compile
complete letter writer, that might serve
the ladies of the middle classes, who were
not versed in polite literature, as a model
for correspondence. Richardson took
servant girl as the imaginary correspond
eDt, and then introducing a narrative to
enhance the interest of the letters, be pro-
duced his Pamela, with the intention of
both instructing and interesting his read
ers, so that they might learn simultane-
ously the art of letter writing and the art
of virtue. The novel began, therefore, in
a series of letters, ''the most natural as
well as the most improbable way Of re-
counting a narrative" according to one of
its earliest critics. Richardson avows his
object-he writes for the women, and, be
it noted, for the women Of the bourgeoisie
