トム・ジョーンズ
The English novel has generally been seen as beginning with Daniel Defoe's "Robinson Crusoe" (1719) and "Moll Flanders" (1722), though John Bunyan's "The Pilgrim's Progress" (1678) and Aphra Behn's, "Oroonoko" (1688) are also contenders. Other major 18th-century British novelists are Samuel Richardson (1689–1761), author of the epistolary novels "Pamela, or Virtue Rewarded" (1740) and "Clarissa" (1747–48); Henry Fielding (1707–54), who wrote "Joseph Andrews" (1742) and "The History of Tom Jones, a Foundling" (1749).
