Readers who love a heroine with a quick mind and a stubborn conscience will find a friend in Pamela. It suits anyone drawn to letters, to sharp arguments about rank and virtue, and to the early English novel.
本の内容
What would you do if your master read your private letters and then scolded you for writing them? Pamela Andrews, a fifteen-year-old maid, faces exactly that. Her only weapon is her pen.
Pamela, or Virtue Rewarded is a novel told through letters and journal entries. Samuel Richardson, a London printer, published it in 1740, and readers across Europe argued over it. You hear Pamela's fear, pride, wit, and prayers as she records them, and you follow her contest with a rich young squire.

A dying lady hands Pamela to her son
The book opens with a letter to Pamela's parents. Her kind mistress has died, and Pamela fears she must return to a cottage too poor to feed her. On her deathbed the lady asked her son to remember poor Pamela.
The young master keeps his mother's wish. He gives Pamela mourning clothes, four gold guineas, and silver from the lady's pocket. She seals the money in a little pillbox and sends it home with John the footman. Then the master catches her writing, takes her letter, reads every line, and hands it back. He praises her handwriting and lets her borrow his mother's books.
Her parents answer with worry instead of joy. Why should a gentleman smile at a servant and read her letter? They fear she may pay with the one jewel she owns. Pamela promises she would live on bread and water before she would lose her good name.
Gifts from the powerful deserve a second look.

『パメラ、あるいは報われた美徳』についての質問
What is Pamela by Samuel Richardson about?
It follows Pamela Andrews, a fifteen-year-old maid, whose master pursues her after his mother's death. She resists his gifts, threats, and schemes and records everything in letters to her parents. The novel asks what virtue is worth against wealth and rank.
Why is Pamela told in letters?
Richardson chose the letter form so readers see events through Pamela's own words, often written the same day. You feel her fear and hope as they happen, and the letters also become part of the plot when they are hidden, stolen, or read.
Who is Mr. B in Pamela?
Mr. B is the young squire and Pamela's master, the son of her late mistress. His name is shortened in the text. He is proud, wealthy, and used to getting his way, and his feelings for Pamela drive the story.
Is Pamela a true story and when was it written?
It is a work of fiction, published in 1740. Richardson shaped it as a set of real-seeming letters, and the story reflects the rank and manners of the eighteenth-century English household.
What is the main message of Pamela?
The book argues that goodness of character matters more than birth or wealth. Pamela keeps her honesty in the face of power, and the novel asks readers to value conscience, faith, and plain truth over rank.
