	The Life and Opinions of Tristram Shandy, Gentleman - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Sterne's engagement with the science and philosophy of his day was extensive, however, and the sections on obstetrics and fortifications, for instance, indicate that he had a grasp of the main issues then current in those fields.
		But the earlier work is not needed to see the influence of Rabelais on Tristram Shandy, which is evident in multiple allusions, as well as in the overall tone of bawdy humor centered on the body.
		Tristram Shandy has been adapted as a graphic novel by cartoonist Martin Rowson.

	SparkNotes: Tristram Shandy: Volume 1
		Tristram Shandy begins his autobiographical tale with the story of his conception, in which his mother interrupts the sexual moment by asking an irrelevant question about the winding of the clock.
		Tristram introduces his father's theory that "there was a strange kind of magick bias, which good or bad names, as he called them, irresistibly impress'd upon our characters and conduct." The most disadvantageous name of all, and the one Walter most detests, is Tristram.
		Tristram represents a type of authorial presence different from that of Sterne himself: he is not free to invent characters or imagine events, but rather filters a "real" world (and a drastically limited and personal one, with a radius of but five miles) through his own experience, memory, personality, and opinions.

	Lynch, Tristram Shandy Bibliography
		Tristram is ultimately not a rhetorician because his concern is not persuasion but pleasure, the simple joy of the text.
		Tristram's only out is writing, which he uses as a tool to resist encroaching commercialism and the definitions it imposes: "Tristram manages and manipulates his narrative authority, both formally and structurally, as to undermine definitions of all kinds, and thereby the authority of bourgeois ideology." Writing resists the closure imposed by bourgeois ideology.
		Williams's thesis is that "Tristram Shandy is a narrative of narrative.

	Bulfinch's Mythology, Age of Chivalry, Part I, Chapter 11: Tristram and Isoude
		Tristram could not resolve to depart without some further communication with his beloved; so he concealed himself in the forest, till at last he contrived to attract her attention by means of twigs which he curiously peeled and sent down the stream under her window.
		Tristram dwelt in the forest, sustaining himself by game, which the dog Houdain ran down for him; for this faithful animal was unequalled in the chase, and knew so well his master's wish for concealment that in the pursuit of his game he never barked.
		Tristram flew to the rescue, and slew with one stroke of his lance one of the assailants.

	Tristram Shandy
		The text purports, as the title indicates, to set out the "autobiography" of Tristram Shandy, however, the birth of the hero, which the author sets about to discuss on the first page, does not finally occur until volume iv and he is not breeched until volume vi.
		Tristram Shandy is thoroughly performative, not so much a story but an extended act of and meditation on story-telling.
		Sterne's narrative logic is one which favours the endless freeplay, the infinite possibilities of writing over the exigencies of plot, the logic of cause and effect and the desire for closure.

	Sir Tristram
		Tristram is also renowned as a hunter; he is the inventor, Malory tells us, of many of the terms of hunting used by gentlemen.
		Tristram's abilities as a hunter may explain the interest, in many of the versions of his story, in his faithful dog (of course, Arthur has his Cafal, too).
		Tristram lies dying, and in his fever recalls the moment when he and Iseult were on the boat, bound for Cornwall.

	Narrativity and Stasis in Martin Rowson's Tristram Shandy
		Tristram Shandy could extend itself because once Tristram is born, the novel's capacity to generate further story--its narrativity, as we would call it today--took the form not of instabilities in the relations of the characters generating expectations and desires, but of very literal gaps between promises made and promises kept.
		If Tristram promises that "the amours of my uncle Toby" will be "the choicest morsel in my whole story" we rightly anticipate, in spite of the violations of normal temporal sequence, that we will hear about them before, and not much before, the denouement of book IX.
		Thus in Rowson Tristram is portrayed, not as a hopeless bumbler but as a wickedly controlling narrator, leading his readers (literally!) by the nose.

	Tristan - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Tristan (Latin/Brythonic: Drustanus; Welsh: Drystan; also known as Tristran, Tristram etc), was a Cornish hero from folklore, and one of the Knights of the Round Table whose story is told in the Matter of Britain.
		He was the nephew of King Mark of Cornwall, sent to fetch Isolde back from Ireland to wed the king.
		He could have been adopted into the family of Mark of Cornwall, which was an attested practice in Roman law.

	Heraldic Symbolism in Tristram and Isoud
		Sir Tristram is interesting, heraldically speaking, because he has had several different arms attributed to him, deriving from versions of the Tristram legend in Italian, German, French, and Norwegian, and emblazoned in various ways, some perhaps erroneous, by artists throughout the Middle Ages.
		Tristram's other great adversary, at least in the prose romances, is Sir Palomides, a pagan knight who loves Isoud almost as much as Tristram himself.
		Surprisingly enough, arms do exist for Meliodas, Tristram's father, whom we scarcely see in most of the versions of the legend, before he is killed off in the tragic prelude to the rest of the story.

	Bulfinch's Mythology, Age of Chivalry, Part I, Chapter 12: Tristram's Battle with Launcelot - The Round Table
		When he came nigh, Sir Tristram said aloud, "Welcome, sir knight, and well and truly have you kept your promise." Then they made ready their shields and spears, and came together with all the might of their horses, so fiercely, that both the horses and the knights fell to the earth.
		While Tristram was thus honored and caressed at the court of King Arthur, the most gloomy and malignant jealousy harassed the soul of Mark.
		Tristram had now been out seven days, and in that time had encountered many of the best knights of the Round Table, and acquitted himself with honor.

	Tristram Shandy on Hypertext
		Tristram Shandy, written in nine separate volumes between 1759 and 1767, is among the most eccentric, extraordinarily complex, and endlessly convoluted works in English literature.
		With its extensive linkings of characters, themes, and extraneous infomation, this hypertext will allow you, the reader, to whimsically jump from subject to subject within the text--just as Sterne has done in his formulation of this masterpiece.
		You may read this text linearly, trace the development of a particular character or theme using the extensive series of links, or invent your own way to follow the chronology of the work.

		She who, as they voyaged, quaff'd With Tristram that spiced magic draught, Which since then for ever rolls Through their blood, and binds their souls, Working love, but working teen?-- There were two Iseults who did sway Each her hour of Tristram's day; But one possess'd his waning time, The other his resplendent prime.
		This is what my mother said should be, When the fierce pains took her in the forest, The deep draughts of death, in bearing me. "Son," she said, "thy name shall be of sorrow; Tristram art thou call'd for my death's sake." So she said, and died in the drear forest.

		Sterne is recognized as one of the most important forerunners of psychological fiction.Sterne himself published volumes 1 and 2 at York late in 1759, but he sent half of the imprint to London to be sold.
		I have never in my life read so many digressions from the topic at hand, most of which were utterly irrelevant but the charm of it is that Sterne knows they're irrelevant, but mockingly expresses his license of authorship in forcing the reader to go off on these sidetracks.
		The book is about Tristram Shandy and his birth, his uncle and his war wound and his father with his love of names and noses.

	Le Morte Darthur: Sir Thomas Malory's Book of King Arthur andof his Noble Knights of the Round Table, Volume 2
		So Sir Tristram alighted off his horse because they were on foot, that they should not slay his horse, and then dressed his shield, with his sword in his hand, and he smote on the right hand and on the left hand passing sore, that well-nigh at every stroke he struck down a knight.
		THEN departed Sir Tristram and rode straight unto Camelot, to the peron that Merlin had made to-fore, where Sir Lanceor, that was the king's son of Ireland, was slain by the hands of Balin.
		As Sir Tristram was at jousts and at tournament it fortuned he was sore hurt both with a spear and with a sword, but yet he won always the degree.

		These last words, you must know, were not according to the old form in which such licences, faculties, and powers usually ran, which in like cases had heretofore been granted to the sisterhood.
		I labour this point so particularly, merely to remove any offence or objection which might arise against it from the manner in which I propose to make the most of it;--which is the putting it up fairly to public sale; which I now do.
		If I was not morally sure that the reader must be out of all patience for my uncle Toby's character,--I would here previously have convinced him that there is no instrument so fit to draw such a thing with, as that which I have pitch'd upon.

		Hard to imagine that anyone could come up with an idea to bring this unusual book to the screen, and Michael Winterbottom hasn't been the most consistent of directors lately (or ever, really) but this is a winner.
		The story is told in several layers: a film is being made of the novel "Tristram Shandy", starring Steve Coogan as both Tristram and his father Walter Shandy, but the behind the scenes drama of the making of the film is an important component.
		And lots of parallels with the various players real lives (Steve Coogan and lap dancers, etc.) Incredibly clever.
