Pour commencer, un vis-à-vis ouvre l’espace d’une confrontation, d’un face à face, d’une mise en regard. C’est aussi cet objet singulier - voiture à deux sièges se faisant face - qui génère les écarts et impose des rapprochements. C’est enfin cet instrument du voyage et de l’écriture que Sterne fait apparaître, à l’orée du Voyage Sentimental, comme en exergue. Opération de l’écriture, le vis-à-vis appelle une activité de lecture singulière. D’une certaine façon, le lecteur, en ce que sa singularité est exclue par cette machine d’écriture, doit l’affronter. D’une autre, il s’y reconnaît comme partenaire implicite, voire explicite, comme complice. Au détour des conventions et des innovations de ce récit de voyage, au gré des ruptures, des absences et des récurrences, au fil des aveux et des désaveux du personnage d’auteur, se tisse l’interrogation de l’objet littéraire, du projet d’écriture. On pose, ici, le vis-à-vis comme étant, simultanément, l’opération fondatrice de l’écriture de Sterne et l’objet représentatif qui l’autorise et la rythme.

Laurence Sterne’s A Sentimental Journey through France and Italy continues to be as widely read and admired as upon its first appearance. Deemed more accessible than Sterne’s Life and Opinions of Tristram Shandy, Gentleman, and often assigned as a college text, A Sentimental Journey has received its share of critical attention, but—unlike Tristram Shandy—to date it has not been the subject of a dedicated anthology of critical essays. This volume fills that gap with fresh perspectives on Sterne’s novel that will appeal to students and critics alike. Together with an introduction that situates each essay within A Sentimental Journey’s reception history, and a tailpiece detailing the culmination of Sterne’s career and his death, this volume presents a cohesive approach to this significant text that is simultaneously grounded and revelatory.

The humour of Tristram Shandy has often been acknowledged, but it is not easy to find scholarly articles on Laurence Sterne which suggest that their authors laughed as they wrote. Nine authors have been invited to redress this in the year of the tercentenary of Sterne's birth. This volume offers nine different facets of humour, a kaleidoscope which enables readers to recombine at will the genial, the bawdy, the sentimental, the ludicrous, the hobby-horsical, the philosophical, the irreverent,...
