The eighteenth century was a period when the modern Novel emerged
through the work of writers such as Laurence Sterne (1713-68),
Richardson, Defoe, Fielding and Johnson. However, the writing of
Sterne is recognised as influencing modern writing from Joyce and
Woolf onwards more than any of the other eighteenth century
novelists.In the last twenty years Sterne's work has become a focus
for a flourishing body of work and significant debates in many new
and developing areas of literary theory which include gender,
sexuality, postmodernism, and deconstruction. Sterne's major novel
'Tristram Shandy' is regarded as deploying a range of 'post-modern
literary devices' expected to be found in late twentieth century
work rather than in work written in the 1700s. This volume combines
the most interesting and stimulating recent critical thinking about
Sterne and represents recent theoretical and critical debates
surrounding Sterne's writing.
