Abstract:

This volume of essays, collected and edited by a well-known Russian scholar and specialist in English literature Ekaterina P. Zykova (1954–2018), deals with a wide range of issues relevant to the students of Henry Fielding (1707–1754), a prominent playwright and novelist of the 18th century. The main purpose behind this work is to recreate, feature by feature, a 3D, multifaceted portrait of the English major writer, who united in himself great qualities of a comediograph, a moralist, a pamphleteer concerned with social matters, a journalist, a jurist and magistrate, an etymologist. This Russian-language study directs inquiry to Fielding’s contribution to World literature and culture, to his life and afterlife. Among the volume’s contributors there are scholars from the Russian Academy of Sciences, from Smolensk State University, from Oles Honchar Dnipro National University and other specialists in the field.

The book will appeal to literary scholars, theatre critics, historians and to wide audience interested in the history of West European culture and literature.

Keywords: the Russian Fielding studies, the Age of Reason, the Enlightenment, classicism, Rococo, literary genres.
