CONCLUSION
In spite of being one of the most interesting
writers, about Samuel
Richardson's early life, little is Known, since he began to write when
he was 51 years old. I think it is important to indicate the fact that
he was mainly known as a letters writer. One of the most important works
of his life was Pamela,
which is a wonderful story of a girl called Pamela who has only 15 years
old and works as a servant. She is persecuted by her master called Mr.B,
so the intrigues, which make the reader can not stop the reading, are observed
in the novel because we do not know if she will fall in love with him or
not during all the novel.
Pamela is an epistolary novel and there are some themes importants
for discussing. Firstly, when we are reading, we get the information of
the novel by means of character's letters. The style is simple and fluent
but we must observe that in the novel is writing Pamela who is a servant,
that is, a girl who has not a high level of education.
Pamela is an example of psychologic introspection novel. It is important
the fact that through Pamela's letters we can discover perfectly her mind
and psychology; it is a passage of psychologic introspection because actually
it is being studied the inner self of Pamel. The work also shows the matter
of the morality, since there is a moral problem with Pamela because the
reader is not sure if Pamela finally get married with Mr. B by love or
only by her social ascent.
This novel has its source in a collection of letters, which form a history,
reflecting the world of the social middle class.
Finally, only say that fortunatelly it was a successful work in the 18th
century, staying now within our reach for enjoying its reading.
