14 de mai. de 2024 · Sir Henry Fielding Dickens. (1849-1933), Lawyer; son of Charles Dickens. Sitter in 4 portraits. Dickens was the sixth son of novelist Charles Dickens and named after author Henry Fielding. Called to the Bar in 1873, he commenced practice on the Kent Sessions and Home Circuit before moving to general practice in London.
Although his career as a novelist spanned less than two decades owing to his late start and his death at age 47, and although he wrote only half-a-dozen novels, Fielding so dominated the genre that young Charles Dickens once said he aspired to being hailed as “The Fielding of the Nineteenth Century.”
We think of Henry Fielding (b. 22 April 1707–d. 8 October 1754) above all as a pioneer of the novel genre: “the Founder of a new Province of Writing,” as he puts it in one of the best-known metafictional chapters of Tom Jones.
