The annotation alone will force scholars to explore again the notion that 18th-century Anglicanism, and Sternes Anglicanism in particular, was devoid of conviction. . . . One of the special strengths of this edition is the editors decision to provide ample quoted material from authors who influenced Sternes work in these sermons. . . . Extremely erudite and sensitive.--William Spellman, University of North Carolina, Asheville\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis two-volume scholarly edition of Laurence Sternes 45 sermons is the first complete reprinting of the text of the sermons since the Shakespeare Head edition in 1927 and the first annotated edition ever. The introduction and notes demonstrate Sternes method of composing sermons and indicate, wherever possible, the relationship between the sermons and Sternes fiction and other writing. In addition, the annotation provides numerous connections between the sermons and Tristram Shandy and A Sentimental Journey.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMelvyn News long and illuminating introduction outlines the main elements of late 17th- and early 18th-century Anglicanism and explores how this theological perspective informed Sternes message in the pulpit. The work includes four categories of annotations: Sternes sources, his theology, his other writings, and his clerical and private life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAs with the Florida edition of Tristram Shandy, this will be the edition that scholars will need to consult. Ecclesiastical and intellectual historians, as well as library scholars interested in the eighteenth century, will find this work of great usefulness.\u003cbr\u003e\nMelvyn New, professor of English at the University of Florida, has been writing on Laurence Sterne for more than 25 years. He is coeditor, with Joan New, of the Florida edition of Tristram Shandy, volumes 1 and 2: The Text (1978); and coeditor of Tristram Shandy, volume 3: The Notes (1984). He is the author of Laurence Sterne as Satirist (UPF, 1969); Telling New Lies: Seven Essays in Fiction, Past and Present (UPF, 1992); and Tristram Shandy: A Book for Free Spirits (1994).\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"University Press of Florida","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47799713071357,"sku":"BRWH-0813013860","price":39.18,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0679\/7777\/3309\/files\/41X6kZIPy-L.jpg?v=1783332670","url":"https:\/\/upmyluck.com\/products\/the-sermons-of-laurence-sterne-the-notes-the-florida-edition-of-the-works-of-laurence-sterne-5-used","provider":"Upmyluck","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
