Pamela; Or, virtue rewarded. with an Introduction. WHEN Pamela, or Virtue Rewarded appeared in two volumes in November 1740 it was soon what we should call a ‘best seller’, the first example of that phenomenon in the history of English fiction. Everybody read it; there was a ‘Pamela’ rage, and Pamela motifs appeared on teacups and fans. Many praised the novel enthusiastically both for its liveliness and its morality, but some condemned the work as undignified and low, seeing in the servant girl’s story a pernicious ‘levelling’ tendency.

(He's the guy who kidnaps he. He tries to make her his mistress. Eventually, he gives up and tells her she can go home to her parents. Well something of that happened to me.

By: Samuel Richardson. She rejects him continually, and her virtue is eventually rewarded when he shows his sincerity by proposing an equitable marriage to her. A Narrative which has its Foundation in TRUTH and NATURE; and at the same time that it agreeably entertains, by a Variety of curious and affecting Incidents, is intirely divested of all those Images, which, in too many Pieces calculated for Amusement only, tend to inflame the Minds they should instruct.
