Question

Bring out the picaresque elements in Tristram Shandy

Answer 1

Answer:

From picaro (“adventurer, rogue”) +‎ -esque (suffix meaning ‘in the style or manner of’ forming adjectives), modelled after Spanish picaresco (“in the style or manner of a picaro; picaresque”), from pícaro (“rogue”) + -esco (suffix forming adjectives indicating a relation). The English word is cognate with French picaresque (attested later than the English word), Italian picaresco, Portuguese picaresco.[1]
