{"product_id":"pamela-or-virtue-rewarded-9780199536498","title":"Pamela; Or, Virtue Rewarded","description":"One of the most spectacular successes of the flourishing literary marketplace of eighteenth-century London, \u003cem\u003ePamela \u003c\/em\u003ealso marked a defining moment in the emergence of the modern novel. In the words of one contemporary, it divided the world into two different Parties, Pamelists and Anti-pamelists, even eclipsing the sensational factional politics of the day. Preached for its morality, and denounced as pornography in disguise, it vividly describes a young servant's long resistance to the attempts of her predatory master to seduce her. Written in the voice of its low-born heroine, \u003cem\u003ePamela\u003c\/em\u003e is not only a work of pioneering psychological complexity, but also a compelling and provocative study of power and its abuse. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBased on the original text of 1740, from which Richardson later retreated in a series of defensive revisions, this edition makes available the version of\u003cem\u003e Pamela\u003c\/em\u003e that aroused such widespread controversy on its first appearance. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Series: \u003c\/strong\u003eFor over 100 years \u003cstrong\u003eOxford World's Classics\u003c\/strong\u003e has made available the broadest spectrum of literature from around the globe.
