Fielding's problem of morality is his view of the vulnerability of the good-natured man. Fielding describes the suffering of the innocent and good-natured man, especially his struggle against the ill-natured men in the social world. The various qualities of human nature appear in Fielding's novel, where the evil of the world is explained.
Also Fielding has much interest in the expression of sorrow and death in his novels. Death in his novels emphasizes the opposition between innocence and evil and between man and nature. Fielding's view of death and bereavement is practical, and attempt to divert the mind from sorrow and pain through comedy.
Thus Fielding makes an emotional comic approach to sorrow and death and brings about pathos and sympathy in the mind of the reader. The characters' responses to death and the death of minor characters in his novels give the reader a feeling of sympathy and pathos through his realistic art of writing, where the balance between laughter and tears is equal.
