A substantial amount of the energy which Henry Fielding put into
his writing was invested in political journalism and
pamphleteering. Indeed, next to his prose fiction and his plays,
his political journalism looms largest, and reveals significant
aspects of Fielding the man. This volume contains three pamphlets -
the Serious Address, the History of the Present Rebellion, and the
Dialogue between the Devil, the Pope, and the Pretender - and one
journal, the True Patriot of 1745-6. Coming from what may be called
the second period of Fielding's intensive political journalism,
they are all informed by the same political purpose: to deal with
the crisis represented by the Jacobite uprising known as the
'Forty-Five' and with the implications this event was perceived to
have for the Pelham administration in general, and for its new
'patriot' allies in particular. As with other volumes in the
edition, there is a detailed introduction, textual introduction,
full annotation throughout, and an index.
