Laurence Sterne in Germany / A Contribution to the Study of the Literary Relations of / England and Germany in the Eighteenth Century

by Harvey W. Hewett-Thayer

[17.] Briefe von Friedrich Matthison, Zürich, 1795, I, pp. 27–32.

[18.] Shandy, III, 22.

[19.] Briefe, II, p. 95.

[20.] “Herders Briefwechsel mit seiner Braut”, pp. 92, 181, 187, 253, 377.

[21.] Quoted by Koberstein, IV, p. 168. Else, p. 31; Hettner, III, 1, p. 362, quoted from letters in Friedrich Schlegel’s Deutsches Museum, IV, p. 145. These letters are not given by Goedeke.

[22.] The review is credited to him by Koberstein, III, pp. 463–4.

[23.] XIX, 2, p. 579.

[24.] See “Bemerkungen oder Briefe über Wien, eines jungen Bayern auf einer Reise durch Deutschland,” Leipzig (probably 1804 or 1805). It is, according to the Jenaische Allg. Litt. Zeitung (1805, IV, p. 383), full of extravagant sentiment with frequent apostrophe to the author’s “Evelina.” Also, “Meine Reise vom Städtchen H . . . . zum Dörfchen H . . . .” Hannover, 1799. See Allg. Litt. Zeitung, 1799, IV, p. 87. “Reisen unter Sonne, Mond und Sternen,” Erfurt, 1798, pp. 220, 8^o. This is evidently a similar work, but is classed by Allg. Litt. Zeitung (1799, I, 477) as an imitation of Jean Paul, hence indirectly to be connected with Yorick. “Reisen des grünen Mannes durch Deutschland,” Halle, 1787–91. See Allg. Litt. Zeitung, 1789, I, 217; 1791, IV, p. 576. “Der Teufel auf Reisen,” two volumes, Frankfurt and Leipzig, 1789. See Allg. Litt. Zeitung, 1789, I, p. 826. Knigge’s books of travels also share in this enlivening and subjectivizing of the traveler’s narrative.

[25.] Altenburg, Richter, 1775, six volumes.

[26.] Reviewed in Allg. deutsche Bibl., X, 2, p. 127, and Neue Critische Nachrichten, Greifswald V, p. 222.
