The curse of the intellectual historian: history I like, geography not so much. Merrills' book treats four histories from the late antique and early medieval periods that share a common literary feature, a dedicated geographical preface to the historical narrative. Merrills really digs down deep on the first text, which served as an inspiration for the other three, Orosius' Seven Books of Histories against the Pagans. I found the treatment of Orosius quite illuminating. I likewise welcomed Merrills' deep knowledge of the geographical tradition, letting his strength shore up my weakness. I have only two minor quibbles. First, sometimes the connections between the geography and the history didn't seem to be all that deep or straightforward; the significance lies in the overall shape of Orosius' preface, not the details, the reader is told. Second, does focusing on such a limited number of texts, all sharing a common design that wasn't ubiquitous in the period, constitute a selection bias that warps the results of the study?

(975. Tom Jones = The History of Tom Jones, a Foundling, Henry Fielding The History of Tom Jones, a Foundling, often known simply as Tom Jones, is a comic novel by the English playwright and novelist Henry Fielding. The novel is both a Bildungsroman and a picaresque novel. First published on 28 February 1749 in London. Tom Jones is among the earliest English prose works describable as a novel and is the earliest novel mentioned by W. Somerset Maugham in his 1948 book Great Novelists and Their Novels among the ten best novels of the world. Totaling 346,747 words, it is divided into 18 smaller books, each preceded by a discursive chapter, often on topics unrelated to the book itself. It is dedicated to George Lyttleton. The kindly and wealthy Squire Allworthy and his sister Bridget are introduced in their wealthy estate in Somerset. Allworthy returns from London after an extended business trip and finds an abandoned baby sleeping in his bed. He summons his housekeeper, Mrs Deborah Wilkins, to take care of the child. After searching the nearby village, Mrs Wilkins is told about a young woman called Jenny Jones, servant of a schoolmaster and his wife, as the most likely person to have committed the deed. Jenny is brought before them and admits being the baby's mother but refuses to reveal the father's identity. Mr Allworthy mercifully removes Jenny to a place where her reputation will be unknown. Furthermore, he promises his sister to raise the boy, whom he names Thomas, in his household. ... characters: Tom Jones, Squire Allworthy, Sophia Western. سرگذشت تام جونز: کودک سر راهی - هنری فیلدینگ (نیلوفر) ادبیات؛ تاریخ نخستین خوانش: روز بیست و هفتم ماه فوریه سال 1984میلادی عنوان: س‍رگ‍ذش‍ت‌ ت‍ام‌ ج‍ون‍ز ک‍ودک‌ س‍رراه‍ی؛ اثر: هن‍ری‌ ف‍ی‍ل‍دی‍ن‍گ‌؛ برگردان: اح‍م‍د ک‍ری‍م‍ی‌ ح‍ک‍اک‌؛ نشر ت‍ه‍ران‌، ن‍ی‍ل‍وف‍ر‫؛ 1361، در چ‍ه‍ل‌ و 809ص؛ شابک چاپ سوم 9789644480782؛ چاپ دوم پاییز 1368، چاپ سوم زمستان 1377، چاپ چهارم 1388، موضوع داستان‌های نویسندگان انگلیسی -- سده 18 م تام جونز، که عنوان کامل آن «سرگذشت تام جونز کودک سر راهی» است؛ در ردیف «دون کیشوت»، «تریسترام شندی»، و «ژاک قضا و قدری»، یعنی برجسته ترین کلاسیکهای تاریخ رمان قرار دارد؛ «تام جونز» نام کودکی سرراهی است، که در خانه ی «ارباب آلورتی» و تحت نظارت خواهر او «بریژیت»، بزرگ شده است؛ کمی پس از پذیرشِ «تام»، «بریژیت» ازدواج میکند، و صاحب فرزندی به نام «بلایفیل» میشود؛ پس از کوتاه زمانی، پدر «بلایفیل» میمیرد، و «بلایفیل» عملا وارث دارایی «آلورتی» میشود، «تام» با آنکه تحت تعلیم و تربیتی مشابه «بلایفیل» بزرگ میشود، اما شخصیتی کاملا متفاوت از او را از خود نشان میدهد؛ «تام» پسری ساده دل، بازیگوش و ماجراجوست، و در مقابل «بلایفیل» حسود، کینه توز، و محتاط است، و هیچ فرصتی را برای بدنام کردن «تام»، از دست نمیدهد.؛ در همسایگی «آلورتی»، مردی زندگی میکند به نام «وسترن»، او دختری زیبا به نام «سوفیا» دارد؛ «تام» به «سوفیا» دل میبندد، و همزمان، در اثر بدخواهی «بلایفیل»، که او نیز مایل به ازدواج با «سوفیا»ست، از خانه «آلورتی» رانده میشود؛ «تام» در آغاز فصل دوازدهم از کتاب ششم ـ ناگزیر سفری اودیسه وار را به سوی لندن در پیش میگیرد.؛ داستان «تام جونز» شامل هجده کتاب است، که هر یک عنوانی ویژه به خود دارند؛ هر کتاب چند فصل است، که آنها نیز نامی دارند.؛ تعداد فصلهای کتابها، از هفت تا پانزده در نوسان است.؛ بعضی از فصللها تنها یک صفحه را شامل میشود تاریخ بهنگام رسانی 21/08/1399هجری خورشیدی؛ ا. شربیانی
