First published on 28 February 1749, Tom Jones is among the earliest English prose works describable as a novel.[1] The novel is divided into 18 smaller books.《弃儿汤姆·琼斯的历史》是菲尔丁的代表作品。就作品反映现实的广度和深度来说，这部作品可以称为英国18世纪社会的散文史诗。全书共分18卷，人物有四十多个，中心情节是描述弃儿汤姆·琼斯的生活遭遇。汤姆·琼斯是私生子，出世不久即被抛弃。后为绅士甄可敬所收养。甄可敬让汤姆·琼斯与庄园主女儿苏菲亚产生了爱情，布力非对此非常嫉妒，极力在舅父甄可敬面前中伤汤姆·琼斯。于是汤姆·琼斯被逐，四处流浪。到了伦敦，他因打伤了一个流氓而下了监狱。苏菲亚的父亲强迫苏菲亚嫁给布力非，苏菲亚违抗父命，也逃到伦敦，找到汤姆·琼斯。最后，汤姆·琼斯的身份得到揭示，原来是甄可敬的亲妹妹的私生子，和布力非是异父同母的兄弟。全书以布力非迫害汤姆·琼斯的阴谋败露，汤姆·琼斯与苏菲亚结婚而结束。

R.M.S. Mongolia, 12th May, 1904 Mayhap, Ella, here too distance lends its enchantment, and these gallant brethren would have quarrelled over Rosamund, or even had their long swords at each other’s throat.

Mayhap the good horse “Smoke” would have fallen on the Narrow Way, leaving false Lozelle a victor, and Masouda, the royal-hearted, would have offered up a strangely different sacrifice upon the altars of her passionate desire.

Ivanhoe is a novel by Sir Walter Scott. It was written in 1819, and is set in 12th-century England, and is an example of historical fiction. Ivanhoe is sometimes creditted for increasing interest in Romanticism and Medievalism; John Henry Newman claimed that Scott "had first turned men's minds in the direction of the middle ages," while Carlyle and Ruskin made similar claims to Scott's overwhelming influence over the revival based primarily on the publication of this novel.

《兔子归来》以1960年代这个特殊时期为背景,描写了与越南战争、种族冲突、女权运动、性革命、反文化运动等社会事件和现象相关的各个方面.作者通过把镜头聚焦在主人公兔子哈里身上以及对其家庭矛盾的细致入微的叙述,使读者清晰地感受到那个特殊年代的种种社会问题并由此导出的自我认同危机.同时,这本小说也是厄普代克作品中政治意味最为强烈的小说之一.从某种意义上说,这和作者本人的政治立场,尤其是作为一个中产阶级白人作家的立场是分不开的.
