الإنجليزية - الإنجليزية
an English writer who influenced the development of the modern novel with his novels Pamela and Clarissa, which are written in the form of letters (1689-1761). (baptized Aug. 19, 1689, Mackworth, near Derby, Derbyshire, Eng. died July 4, 1761, Parson's Green, near London) English novelist. After moving with his family to London at age 10, Richardson was apprenticed to a printer before setting up in business for himself in 1721. He soon became quite prosperous. In the 1730s he began to edit and write pamphlets, and he eventually hit on the idea of writing a book using a series of letters on the same subject. His major novels were the epistolary novel Pamela (1740), about a servant who avoids seduction and is rewarded by marriage; and his huge masterpiece, Clarissa, 7 vol. (1747-48), a tragedy with multiple narrators that develops a profoundly suggestive interplay of opposed voices. The History of Sir Charles Grandison (1753-54), which blends moral discussion and a comic ending, influenced later writers, especially Jane Austen
