Abstract
The eighteenth-century novels of Henry Fielding show striking resemblances with the ancient romances. This article focuses on one such similarity: the motif of apparant death. it explores instances where not only the motif itself but also a number of narrative details (plot lines, situations, results and/or goals) recall passages from specific Greek romances. Fielding's use of ancient fiction is contextualized by comparison/contrast with his famous rival Samuel Richardson, who uses the motif in a significantly different way. Fielding uses the motif to direct the plot or create a certain atmosphere of a scene. He adapts it to his own style and his theme of the human passions.
