4. • LAWRENCE STERNE has been compared to a “little bronze satyr of antiquity
in whose hollow body exquisite odours were stored”.
• That is true, so far as the styre is concerned; for a more weazened,
unlovely personality would be hard to find.
❑ The two boks by which strne is remembered are:
I. “ Tristram Shandy ”

5. II. “A Sentimental Journey through France and Italy”
These are termed novels for the simple reason that we know not what else to call
them.
The former was begun, in his own words,‘ with no real idea of how it was
going to turn out ’ ;
It’s nine Volumes, published at intervals from 1760 to 1767.
