Krátky popis
A Sentimental Journey Through France and Italy is a novel by the
Irish-born English author Laurence Sterne, written and first
published in 1768, as Sterne was facing death. In 1765 Laurence
Sterne travelled through France and Italy as far south as Naples,
and after returning determined to describe his travels from a
sentimental point of view. The novel can be seen as an epilogue to
the possibly unfinished work The Life and Opinions of Tristram
Shandy, Gentleman, and also as an answer to Tobias Smollett's
decidedly unsentimental Travels through France and Italy. (Sterne
met Smollett during his travels in Europe, and strongly objected to
his spleen, acerbity and quarrelsomeness. He modeled the character
of Smelfungus on him.)The novel was extremely popular and
influential and helped establish travel writing as the dominant
genre of the second half of the 18th century. Unlike prior travel
accounts which stressed classical learning and objective
non-personal points of view, A Sentimental Journey emphasized the
subjective discussions of personal taste and sentiments, of manners
and morals over classical learning. Throughout the 1770s women
travel writers began publishing significant numbers of sentimental
travel accounts. Sentiment also became a favorite style among those
expressing non-mainstream views including political radicalism.The
narrator is the Reverend Mr. Yorick, who is slyly represented to
guileless readers as Sterne's barely disguised alter ego. The book
recounts his various adventures, usually of the amorous type, in a
series of self-contained episodes. The book is less eccentric and
more elegant in style than Tristram Shandy and was better received
by contemporary critics. It was published on February 27, and on
March 18 Sterne died.
