Tristram Shandy -- Sterne’s Life Philosophy

If you enjoy my content, feel free to support the channel on my Ko-fi page: Tristram Shandy by Laurence Sterne is so delightful. Written in 1760s, it is the wackiest novel you will ever read.

But first let me tell you a bit about Laurence Sterne himself. 🕔Time Stamps🕔 00:00 Intro 00:32 Laurence Sterne’s Biography 01:45 Tristram Shandy Summary 13:14 Analysis: Age of Reason 15:35 Irish Mischiefism 16:55 Life’s digressions Music: We Are Here by Declan DP Licensing Agreement: Free Download / Stream: Music promoted by Audio Library https://youtu.b
