The Works of Laurence Sterne, A.M., in Eight Volumes; Volume 2

By Laurence Sterne

This is Volume 2 of an eight-volume set containing the collected works of Laurence Sterne (1713-1768), the celebrated 18th-century English novelist and clergyman. Sterne is best known for his novels "The Life and Opinions of Tristram Shandy, Gentleman" and "A Sentimental Journey Through France and Italy."

Sterne's works are characterized by their experimental narrative style, humor, and sentimental themes. His writing broke from traditional novelistic conventions, embracing digressions, eccentric characters, and a self-aware narrator who directly addresses the reader. This edition offers a valuable opportunity to engage with Sterne's complete oeuvre, showcasing his unique contribution to English literature. Volume 2 provides a critical insight into the development of the novel and the literary landscape of the Enlightenment.
