Uma Viagem Sentimental: A Revolução da Sensibilidade em Sterne
Uma Viagem Sentimental através da França e Itália, publicado por Laurence Sterne em 1768, é uma obra revolucionária que redefine completamente o conceito de literatura de viagem, privilegiando experiências emocionais e encontros humanos sobre descrições geográficas ou observações culturais convencionais. Este romance fragmentário e inovador estabelece novos paradigmas para a expressão da sensibilidade masculina e cria uma das explorações mais sofisticadas sobre empatia, comunicação e natureza humana da literatura setecentista.A estrutura episódica e aparentemente casual mascara sofisticação narrativa extraordinária, com Sterne utilizando técnica de associação li...

Tristram Shandy: Uma Revolução Literária que Antecipou a Modernidade por Dois Séculos
A Vida e as Opiniões de Tristram Shandy, Cavalheiro, publicado por Laurence Sterne entre 1759 e 1767, é uma das obras mais experimentais e influentes da literatura inglesa. Este romance extraordinário desafia todas as convenções narrativas de sua época, criando uma forma literária completamente nova que antecipa técnicas modernistas em mais de um século. Sterne constrói uma narrativa que é simultaneamente autobiografia, comédia, tratado filosófico e experimento formal radical.O protagonista-narrador Tristram Shandy propõe-se a contar sua própria história desde o nascimento, mas constantemente se desvia em digressões, anedotas familiar...

On Satire
'The Life and Opinions of Tristram Shandy, Gentleman' by Laurence Sterne
'Tristram Shandy' was such a hit in its day that you could buy tea trays, watch cases and cushions decorated with its most famous characters and scenes. If much of the satire covered in this series so far has featured succinct and damning portrayals of recognisable city types, Sterne’s comic masterpiece seems to offer the opposite: a sprawling and irreducible depiction of idiosyncratic country-dwellers that makes a point of never making its point. Yet many of the familiar satirical tricks are there – from radical shifts in scale to the liberal use of innuendo – and in this episode Clare and Co...

Ep 10 - Vie et opinions de Tristram Shandy par Laurence Sterne
Laurence Sterne. Beaucoup d’écrivains contemporains estiment devoir une fière chandelle à ce livre en termes d’inspirations. Il s’agit d’une biographie de Laurence Sterne avec la particularité qu’elle démarre à la conception de l’auteur et se termine quatre ans après sa naissance. Autant dire que l’auteur passe magistralement à côté du sujet. C’est en fait la chronique de la vie campagnarde anglaise qui donne lieu à toute sorte de digressions sur le monde intellectuel ou politique et la vie familiale des ascendants de l’auteur. Cette manière de procéder, passer littéralement à côté du sujet p...

Backlisted
The Life and Opinions of Tristram Shandy, Gentleman by Laurence Sterne
The Life and Opinions of Tristram Shandy, Gentleman AKA Tristram Shandy by Laurence Sterne is the subject of this years-in-the-making episode of Backlisted. Published in nine volumes between 1759 and 1767, Sterne's cock and bull story has entertained, baffled, enchanted, infuriated and inspired readers ever since; needless to say, at Backlisted we love it. Joining John and Andy to celebrate this great, hilarious, digressive novel - or is it a series of great, hilarious, digressive novels? - are award-winning children's author Katherine Rundell and our friend Frank Cottrell-Boyce, who adapted Tristram Shandy for the big screen in 2005 as A Cock and...

They discuss Laurence Sterne’s novel and veer off on various tangents as they meander from St Michael’s Church, where Sterne was perpetual curate, to Shandy Hall, where he wrote most of Tristram Shandy. They meet the curator, Patrick Wildgust, who guides them through the eccentric building. Penguin Classics edition of Tristram Shandy by Laur...

In his book, From Darwin to Derrida: Selfish Genes, Social Selves, and the Meanings of Life (MIT Press), evolutionary biologist David Haig explains how a physical world of matter in motion gave rise to a living world of purpose and meaning.Natural selection is a process without purpose, yet gives rise to purposeful beings who find meaning in the world. Haig proposes that the key to this is the origin of mutable “texts” that preserve a record of what has worked in the world, in other words: genes.

Porträt | "Empfindsame Reise zu Tristram Shandy und seinem Schöpfer Laurence Sterne. Eine Annäherung in fünfzehn Kapiteln"
Als 1759 die ersten Bände von "Leben und Ansichten von Tristram Shandy, Gentleman" erschienen, war der Autor Laurence Sterne - ein 46-jähriger Landpfarrer - in der literarischen Welt völlig unbekannt. Doch sein Roman war nichts Geringeres als eine literarische Sensation, nicht nur in England, auch auf dem Kontinent, vor allem in Deutschland. // Von Mira Alexandra Schnoor / Mit Stefan Wilkening, Benedikt Schregle, Johannes Hitzelberger, Katja Bürkle, Beate Himmelstoß / Realisation: Mira Alexandra Schnoor / BR 2015

A Sentimental Journey: Martin Rowson and Iain Sinclair
Laurence Sterne’s A Sentimental Journey Through France and Italy, his final work and published in the year of his death in 1768, has been somewhat neglected of late in favour of his earlier The Life and Opinions of Tristram Shandy, Gentleman. Narrated by Yorick, one of the dramatis personae of the earlier book and a barely disguised self-portrait of Sterne himself, A Sentimental Journey is marked by the author’s trademark sharp wit, good humour and sense of irony. 250 years after its first publication, this landmark in the history of travel writing was discussed by the writer and traveller Iain Sinc...

His enormously successful book, The Life and Opinions of Tristram Shandy, Gentleman, helped Sterne to achieve this ambition: it caused a sensation when it was published in the 1760s and remains in print to this day. Many of Sterne’s earliest readers found his approach to novel-writing highly innovative, even provocative, because of his zany narrative methods, bawdy jokes, haphazard erudition, and the striking visual features he brings into Tristram Shandy: its black, marbled, and blank pages continue to surprise...

Steve Coogan
Kirsty Young's castaway is the comedian and actor Steve Coogan. As a child he found he had a knack for impressions, a talent which led him to work on Spitting Image. Recently he has also found success in films, but is best known for the comic monster he created - Alan Partridge. The chatshow host in Pringle jumper and slacks made us cringe with his crass questions and witless interventions and has remained one of our most enduring comic anti-heroes.[Taken from the original programme material for this archive edition of Desert Island Discs]Favourite...

It is a work of considerable philosophical complexity but at the same time it is just a piece of flim-flam: it has been called the longest shaggy dog story in English literature. It is both a classic novel and an anti-novel. It includes passages of seemingly serious theology...

In Our Time
Sensibility
Melvyn Bragg examines the 18th century idea of Sensibility. In Laurence Sterne’s A Sentimental Journey, the lead character Yorick comforts a young woman who has been abandoned by a little pet goat that had proved as faithless as her lover. Yorick describes her effect upon his ‘sweet sensibility’, “I sat down close by her, and Maria let me wipe the tears away as they fell, with my handkerchief. I then steeped it in my own - and then in hers - and then in mine - and then I wiped hers again - and as I did it, I felt s...
