Conclusion
Understanding students’ learning strategies is important for teachers and researchers since they try to develop a learning environment that stimulates high-quality learning outcomes. Students should learn about literature. While I was writing course paper, I know about Henry Fielding’s life and his works. Henry Fielding was the major representative of English enlightenment literature. Henry Fielding was an English novelist, irony writer, and dramatist known for earthy humour and satire. Henry Fielding would construct "the non-ironic pseudonym such as Addison Steele used in the Spectator, and the ironic mask or Persona, such as Swift used in A Modest Proposal. Fielding never stopped writing political satire and satires of current arts and letters. Fielding dedicated his play Don Quixote in England to the opposition Whig leader Lord Chesterfield. It appeared on 17 April 1734, the same day writs were issued for the general election. He dedicated his 1735 play The Universal Gallant to Charles Spencer, 3rd Duke of Marlborough, a political follower of Chesterfield. The other prominent opposition paper, Common Sense, founded by Chesterfield and Lyttelton, was named after a character in Fielding's Pasquin (1736). Fielding wrote at least two articles for it in 1737 and 1738. Henry Fielding wrote lots of novels, poems, plays. The famous novels are A Journey from this World to the Next, wrote in 1749, Shamela, Amelia, The history of Tom Jones, a Foundling wrote in 1749, The life and death of Jonathan Wild, the Great in1743. As well as he wrote lots of plays. The famous plays are Love in several masques wrote in 1728, Rape upon Rape in 1730, The Temple Beau in 1730, The Author’s Farce in 1730, The pleasures of the town, The letter writers or a new way to keep a wife at home, a farce , The lottery in 1732, The Covent garden tragedy, The modern husband, The Grub street opera, Miss Lucy in Town, A Farce – 1743, Tumbledown Dick or Phaeton in the Suds, The Wedding-Day, A Comedy The Fathers: Or, the Good-Natur'd Man – published posthumously in 1778. His health was deteriorating. By 1752 his gout was so bad that his legs were swathed in bandages, and he often had to use crutches or a wheelchair. In August of 1753 he decided to go to Bath for rest and the waters. That year was a particularly bad one for crime in London, however, and on the eve of his leaving he was invited by Thomas Pelham-Holles , Duke of Newcastle (then secretary of war), to prepare a plan for the Privy Council for the suppression of “those murders and robberies which were every day committed in the streets.” His plan, undertaking “to demolish the then reigning gangs” and to establish means of preventing their recurrence, was accepted, and despite the state of his health—to gout had been added asthma and dropsy—he stayed in London for the rest of the year, waging war against criminal gangs with such success that “there was, in the remaining month of November, and in all December, not only no such thing as a murder, but not even a street-robbery committed.”
