Tom Jones as a picaresque novel or Picaresque Hero.
The picaresque is in many ways related to comic epic, the picaresque novel being epical in scope and comic in nature. Picaresque derived from Spanish word "Picaresca" from Picaro that means "Rogue or Rascal" . It is a genre of prose fiction which depicts the adventures of a roguish hero of low social class who lives by his wits in a corrupt society like Raju in The Guide , Sancho Panza in Don Quixote and Samuel Pickwick in Pickwick Papers, Moll in Moll Flanders . Tom Jones was a Pcaresque Hero in Tom Jones , born in a low birth of unknown family, rejected Molly as a wife, charmed the beauty of Sofia, killed Fitzpatrick of angerness and gone in the jail, at the last moment marry Sofia.
Tom Jones adventure was starting when Mr Allworthy banished Tom from his house for is rascal attitude. Tom ready to going Casanova attitude to Mrs Walters in inn,then Lady Bellaston and killed a Fitzpatrick, but ultimately realised from the jail and leter settled to Sofia.
The fact is Tom himself is a picaresque hero from the viewpoint of the critics.He is the epitome of Unheroes. He is notorious for beating up his mates through this justifiable on the ground of his innate nature . His adventurous nature also reveals itself in his breaking his arms while trying to prevent sofia's accident on a house but his voracious sexual appetite would certainly entitle him to the rank of a Picaresque Hero . Even while being a enamored of Sophia and in in spite of the reciprocating his love, Tom is guilty of indulging sexually with the game keeper's daughter's Molly. His subsequently affairs with Mrs Walters only collaborated his knowish nature.
It is significant that even berring Tom Jones himself, his confident little Benjamin Alias Partridge is a highly amusing character that parallels Sancho Panza in the picaresque Don Quixote. Although Henry Fielding does not state explicitly in the Tom Jones as he does in Joseph Andrews that it is written with the Spanish master's great example in mind, it is impossible for the readers to be unconscious of the technical and spiritual relations between two novels.
Tom was a orphan who did not know the real identity of his if it come out at the end of the novel.His voracious sexual appetite break down his life slowly but steadily and his hot temper attitude met him in jail , after that, he understood what was the meaning of happiness, peace and life through out in the Picaresque Novel as Picaresque Hero.
