| dbo:abstract | The History of Sir Charles Grandison, appelé en français et dans la traduction de l'abbé Prévost Nouvelles lettres angloises ou Histoire de Sir Charles Grandisson, est un roman épistolaire de Samuel Richardson publié pour la première fois en février 1753. Prévost lui-même signale, dans sa préface, une traduction française concurrente, par le pasteur Genevois Gaspard Joël Monod. Elle sera rééditée à Leyde en 1764 avec des gravures. Le livre s'inscrivait en réaction à l'ouvrage de Henry Fielding, The History of Tom Jones, a Foundling (Histoire de Tom Jones, enfant trouvé), qui parodiait lui-même les aspects moraux développés dans les précédents romans de Samuel Richardson. Le roman raconte d'abord l'histoire de Harriet Byron, courtisée par Sir Hargrave Pollexfen. Après qu'elle a rejeté Sir Hargrave, celui-ci l'enlève, et elle n'est libérée que grâce à l'intervention de Sir Charles Grandisson, dont le carrosse croise par hasard celui du ravisseur. Après l'entrée en scène de Sir Charles, le roman se centre sur son histoire, et notamment celle de ses amours malheureuses avec Clémentine, qu'il a rencontrée en Italie.
