Do you agree with Fielding that the character of Adams "is the most glaring in the whole"? Give your reason.

Fielding used Adams' character to display true goodness. I don't know if I myself would consider him glaring, but I do see the man's innate goodness and simplicity as an example of what a clergyman should be. Fielding in no way portrays his circumstances and experiences as pristine, but rather entirely human. I love this character because Fielding gives him the opportunity be human, not perfect.

One of the best-known character in English literature, Parson Adam is an erudite but guileless man who expects the best of everyone and frequently the victim of deceit. Undaunted, he continues on his absent minded, kindly way, his sense of humor and his belief in the goodness of other intact.
