OverviewThe Anti-Pamela is one of several novels written in response to Richardson's 1740 novel, satirising the innocence of the character of Pamela Andrews. Much like the more popular Shamela by Henry Fielding, the female protagonist is portrayed as a social climber, although Haywood's character is much less licentious than Fielding's Shamela. PlotHaywood's novel follows the life of a Pamela-esque character, who attempts to use her seemingly innocent nature to become a prosperous noblewoman at the expense of her empty-headed master. However, the innocence of Haywood's Pamela is simply a mask for her devious cunning and deceit. See also
