'An Apology for the Life of Mrs. Shamela Andrews' is a satirical burlesque novella by the English writer Henry Fielding, widely considered to be a direct attack on Samuel Richardson's popular novel 'Pamela'. Through a series of letters between major characters, Shamela reveals the true nature of Pamela Andrews, who turns out to be a wicked and lascivious creature scheming to entrap her master into marriage. The novel is a sustained parody of Richardson's stylistic failings and moral hypocrisy, revealing the hidden implications of his work to subvert and desecrate it. With its biting wit and sharp commentary on the commodification of chastity and the limitations of the epistolary form, 'Shamela' remains a literary classic and a must-read for lovers of satire and parody.
