Answer:
1.) Literaturee is considered the mirror of culture in society. This means that books that are written by a society are influenced by the happenings.
2.) Does the story reveal or contradict the prevailing values of the time in which it was written? does it provide an opinion view of the periods prevailing values?
3.) Much of the distinctiveness of Fielding’s first novel derives from the author’s background as a gentleman, a playwright, and a peculiarly eighteenth-century type of Christian. His youth at Eton College, where he had received a gentleman’s classical education, informed Fielding’s ambition to elevate the middle-class and vernacular genre of the novel by giving it a classical pedigree; the Preface to Joseph Andrews, in which Fielding explains in detail his inauguration of a hybrid genre, the “comic Epic-Poem in Prose,” makes explicit his desire to blend high and low and is a measure of how seriously he hoped that his work would be taken. By comparison, Fielding’s earlier literary output had been relatively slapdash; from 1728 to 1737 he had been a writer of comedies for the London stage, in which capacity he had sought, in the words of the earlier dramatist John Vanbrugh, “to show People what they should do, by representing them on the Stage doing what they should not.” A contemporary remarked that these plays had been written “on tobacco-paper,” and indeed they show signs of haste and of having been written for money; while Fielding would conceive more loftily of his novels in terms of their form and pedigree, however, he would remain consistent in his view of literature’s moral utility as a vehicle of constructive ridicule.
