by AUSTIN DOBSON AUTHOR OF STEELE HORACE WALPOLE WILLIAM HOGARTH VIGNETTES IN RHYME ETC. JEnglisb fl en of Letters EDITED BY JOHN MORLEY HARPER BROTHERS PUBLISHERS NEW YORK AND LONDON 1902 HENRY FIELDING PREFATORY NOTE. FROM a critical point of view, the works of Fielding have received abundant examination at the hands of a long line of distinguished writers. Of these, the latest is by no means the least and as Mr. Leslie Stephens brilliant studies, in the recent edition de luxe and the Cornhill Magazine, are now in every ones hands, it is perhaps no more than a wise discretion which has prompted me to confine my attention more strictly to the purely biographical side of the subject. In the present memoir, therefore, I have made it my duty, primarily, to verify such scattered anecdotes respecting Field ing as have come down to us to correct I hope not obtru sively a few mis-statements which have crept into previous accounts and to add such supplementary details as I have been able to discover for myself. In this task I have made use of the following authori ties I. Arthur Murphys Bssay on the Life and Genius of Henry iddi ig, SJsQ, This was prefixed to the first collected edi tion of Fieldings works published by Andrew Millar in June, 1762 and it continued for a long time to be the rec ognised authority for Fieldings life. It is possible that it fairly reproduces his personality, as presented by contempo rary tradition but it is misleading in its facts, and needless ly diffuse. Under pretence of respecting the manes of the dead, the writer seems to have found it pleasanter to fill his space with vagrant discussions on the Middle Comedy of vi PREFATORY NOTE. the Greeks and the machineryof the Eapo of the Lock, than to make the requisite biographical inquiries. This is the more to be deplored, because, in 1763, Fieldings widow, brother, and sister, as well as his friend Lyttclton, were still alive, and trustworthy information should have been procurable. n. Watsons Life of Henry Fielding, Esq. This is usually to be found prefixed to a selection of Fieldings works issued at Edinburgh. It also appeared as a volume in 1807, al though there is no copy of it in this form at the British Mu seum. It carries Murphy a little farther, and corrects him in some instances. But its author had clearly never even seen the Miscellanies of 1743, with their valuable Preface, for he speaks of them as one volume, and in apparent ignorance of their contents. III. Sir Walter Scotts biographical sketch for Ballantynea Novelists Library. This was published in 1821 and is now included in the writers Miscellaneous Prose Works. Sir Wal ter made no pretence to original research, and even spoke slightingly of this particular work but it has all the charm of his practised and genial pen. IV. Roscoes Memoir, compiled for the one-volume edition of Fielding, published by Washbourne and others in 1840. V. Thackerays well-known lecture, in the English 2Iu mourists of the Eighteenth Century, 1853. VI. The Life of Henry Melding with Notices of his Writ ings, his Times, and his Contemporaries. By Frederick Law rence. 1855. This is an exceedingly painstaking book, and constitutes the first serious attempt at a biography. Ita chief defect as pointed out at the time of its appearance is an ill-judged emulation of Forsters Goldsmith. The au thor attempted to make Fielding a literary centre, which is impossibleand the attempt has involved him in needless digressions. He is also not always careful to give chapter and verse for his statements. VII. Thomas Keightleys papers On the Life and Writings of Henry Fielding, i Prases Magazine for January and Feb PREFATORY NOTE. vii ruary, 1858. These, prompted by Mr. Lawrences book, are most valuable, if only for the authors frank distrust of his predecessors. They arc the work of an enthusiast, and a very conscientious examiner. If, as reported, Mr...

Important discoveries in private and public archives have recently brought to light many new letters by Henry Fielding (1707-54) and by his sister, the novelist and classicist Sarah Fielding (1710-68). Published here for the first time is their entire extant correspondence, edited with an Introduction and explanatory annotations - 77 letters from and to Henry Fielding written over the years 1727 to 1754, and 33 letters from and to Sarah Fielding written from 1749 to 1767. The collection illuminates Henry Fielding's activities as author, lawyer, and magistrate; and it is valuable as well for the light it throws on his character and personal relationships. Fielding scholars are already acquainted with the important letters to his cousin Lady Mary Wortley Montagu, to his rival Samuel Richardson, to his friend George Lyttelton, and to his famous half-brother John Fielding, the latter written on the sad occasion of his final voyage to Lisbon. In this volume they will also find Fielding's correspondence with his great patron, the Duke of Bedford, and his agents - letters relating to Fielding's stewardship of the New Forest and to his appointments to the magistracy. The heart of this present collection, however - Fielding's correspondence with his closest friend, James `Hermes' Harris - is completely new. Never before published, the Harris letters comprise the finest extant examples of Fielding's epistolary correspondence, a kind of familiar writing he practised reluctantly, but well. The Harris papers are equally valuable for what they reveal of Sarah Fielding's literary and scholarly interests and her relationship with her brother. Other letters in the collection - several also published here for the first time - will serve to clarify her friendships with Richardson, Garrick, and Elizabeth Montagu. Included in the Appendix are a half-dozen letters from members of the family that will be of interest to biographers of Henry and Sarah.Important discoveries in private and public archives have recently brought to light many new letters by Henry Fielding (1707-54) and by his sister, the novelist and classicist Sarah Fielding (1710-68).

New material alone could justify any attempt to supplement the Fielding of Mr Austin Dobson. Such material has now come to light, and together with reliable facts collected by previous biographers, forms the subject matter of the present volume. As these pages are concerned with Fielding the man, and not only with Fielding the most original if not the greatest of English novelists, literary criticism has been avoided; but all incidents, disclosed by hitherto unpublished documents, or found hidden in the columns of contemporary newspapers, which add to our knowledge of Fielding's personality, have been given. The new material includes records of Fielding's childhood; documents concerning his estate in Dorsetshire; the date and place, hitherto undiscovered, of that central event in his life, the death of his beloved wife, whose memorial was to be the imperishable figure of "Sophia Western"; letters, now first published, adding to our knowledge of his energies in social and legislative reform, and of the circumstances of his life; many extracts from the columns of the daily press of the period; notices, hitherto overlooked, from his contemporaries; and details from the unexplored archives of the Middlesex Records concerning his strenuous work as a London magistrate. The few letters by Fielding already known to exist have been doubled in number; and a reason for the extraordinary rarity of these letters has been found in the unfortunate destruction, many years ago, of much of his correspondence. The charm of the one intimate letter that we possess from the pen of the 'Father of the English Novel,' that written to his brother John, during the voyage to Lisbon, enhances regret at the loss of these letters. Among the contemporary prints now first reproduced that entitled the Conjurors is of special interest, as being the only sketch of Fielding, drawn during his lifetime, known to exist. Rough as it is, the characteristic figure of the man, as described by his contemporaries and drawn from memory in Hogarth's familiar plate, is perfectly apparent. The same characteristics may be distinguished in a small figure of the novelist introduced into the still earlier political cartoon, entitled the Funeral of Faction. Such in brief are the reasons for the existence of this volume. It remains to express my warmest acknowledgment of Mr Austin Dobson's unfailing counsel and assistance. My thanks are also due to Mr Ernest Fielding for permission to reproduce the miniature which appears as the frontispiece; to Mr Aubrey Court, of the House of Lords; to Mr E. S. W. Hart, for his help throughout the necessary researches among the Middlesex Records; to Mrs Deane of Gillingham; and to Mr Frederick Shum of Bath. And I am indebted to Mr Sidney Colvin, Keeper of the Department of Prints and Drawings in the British Museum, in regard to almost every one of the thirty-two rare prints and cartoons now reproduced.
