Book The Journal to Eliza and Various letters by Laurence Sterne and Elizabeth Draper

Download or read book The Journal to Eliza and Various letters by Laurence Sterne and Elizabeth Draper written by Laurence Sterne and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2021-11-05 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Journal to Eliza" is a fictionalized account of Laurence Sterne's relationship with Eliza Draper, based on letters Sterne wrote to her. Laurence Sterne, a vicar of Coxwold, and celebrity author of The Life and Opinions of Tristram Shandy met, at a London gathering, Eliza Draper, who was visiting England from her home in India. Eliza was 23 and had married – at the age of 14 – Daniel Draper, an East India Company employee, a man 30 years her senior. The house where Sterne and Eliza met was in Gerrard Street, Soho, and was owned by William James, ex-Commander-in-chief of the East India Company. The house had become a meeting place for East India employees. Sterne was 54, and a married vicar. When Eliza had to sail back to India three months later, Sterne wrote to her every day. The letters were developed into The Journal to Eliza, a fictionalized chronicle of their relationship, which shows a different side of Sterne from the witty high-spirited author of Tristram Shandy. The Brahmin caste is the priestly class of India. Given the Brahmin Hindu priestly caste is renowned for austerity and wisdom, Sterne thereby draws attention to his real-life role as a priest.

Book Laurence Sterne

Download or read book Laurence Sterne written by Arthur Cash and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-11-30 with total page 373 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1986, Laurence Sterne follows Sterne’s life and career from the moment of recognition brought by the successful publication of the first two volumes of Tristram Shandy, to the publication in 1768 of A Sentimental Journey and its author’s death three weeks later. Sterne, a consumptive who knew that he would meet an early death, was determined to pack into his life all the writing, adventure and play he could, believing implicitly ‘that every time a man smiles, -- but much more so, when he laughs, that it adds something to this Fragment of Life.’ We see him in his study at Shandy Hall, among the philosophes in Paris, with his family at Toulouse and Montpellier, preaching before the villagers of Coxworld or before the duke of York, and entertaining the bluestockings, the intellectuals, the wits and rakes of 18th century London. We witness Sterne’s struggle, after sailing through the early volumes of Tristram Shandy, to find ways to continue or complete the novel. We watch the disintegration of any meaningful relationship with his wife, his secret amours, his public sentimental flirtations and his hopeless passion for Eliza Draper. This book will be of interest to students of literature, literary history as well as to any casual reader of Sterne’s novels.

Book Adaptations of Laurence Sterne s Fiction

Download or read book Adaptations of Laurence Sterne s Fiction written by Mary-Celine Newbould and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-23 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Exploring how readers received and responded to literary works in the long eighteenth century, M-C. Newbould focuses on the role played by Laurence Sterne’s fiction and its adaptations. Literary adaptation flourished throughout the eighteenth century, encouraging an interactive relationship between writers, readers, and artists when well-known works were transformed into new forms across a variety of media. Laurence Sterne offers a particularly dynamic subject: the immense interest provoked by The Life and Opinions of Tristram Shandy, Gentleman and A Sentimental Journey through France and Italy inspired an unrivalled number and range of adaptations from their initial publication onwards. In placing her examination of Sterneana within the context of its production, Newbould demonstrates how literary adaptation operates across generic and formal boundaries. She breaks new ground by bringing together several potentially disparate aspects of Sterneana belonging to areas of literary studies that include drama, music, travel writing, sentimental fiction and the visual. Her study is a vital resource for Sterne scholars and for readers generally interested in cultural productivity in this period.

Book A Sentimental Journey Through France and Italy

Download or read book A Sentimental Journey Through France and Italy written by Laurence Sterne and published by Hackett Publishing. This book was released on 2006-01-01 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In annotated texts based on those of the acclaimed Florida Edition of The Works of Laurence Sterne, this edition features the two works Sterne produced in the final year of his illness-plagued life: the witty, bawdy, pathetic, and thoughtful A Sentimental Journey through France and Italy; and Continuation of the Bramine's Journal, Sterne's correspondence to a twenty-two-year-old married Englishwoman living in India ("a Diary," as he put it, "of the miserable feelings of a person separated from a Lady for whose Society he languish'd"). Together, these mutually illuminating works offer rich insight into their author's hopes, fears, loves, longings, and philosophy as he prepared to face death and judgment. Excerpts from related texts provide context for understanding the title works in relation to the earlier writings and life of this exuberant yet subtle genius of eighteenth-century English literature.
