Of course, it starts here, in V.. And, sorry, it can be traced to Henry Adams.
Interested readers should read the Rome Chapter in TEHA.
see Harbert, Earl, N., "The Education of Henry Adams: The Confessional
Mode as Heuristic Experiment"
The Journal of Narrative Technique
Vol. 4, No. 1 (Jan., 1974), pp. 3-18
The quest theme is ubiquitious in the novel V.: cowboy, detective,
love, picaresque, etc.
