First edition of this important work with the corrected readings in both volumes: “vous” on p. 150, line 12, of vol. I, and “who have” on p. 133, last line, in vol. II. Laurence Sterne (1713–1768) is perhaps the most influential author from the 18th century relating to the modern movement. His “Sentimental Journey”, Sterne's final novel, is one of the earliest examples of the “stream-of-consciousness” literary technique, which later was intellectualiced by James Joyce. Based on Sterne's two journeys abroad in 1762–64 and 1765, the work parodies the many fashionable travel accounts of the day. The narrator, “Parson Yorick”, sets out on a tour of France and Italy, but at the end of the book he has travelled no further than Lyon.
