Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Joseph Addison and Sir Richard Steele were two English writers who collaborated on the creation of The Tatler, a literary and social commentary publication that was immensely popular in the early 18th century. The Tatler was first published in 1709 and ran for two years before being discontinued, but was revived in 1711 for another year, with a total of 271 issues being produced. Addison and Steele used The Tatler as a platform to explore a wide range of social and political issues of the time, including manners, customs, and the behavior of the upper classes. They employed a humorous and satirical style that was highly influential and set the standard for future publications in the same vein. In addition to The Tatler, Addison, and Steele collaborated on other literary projects, including The Spectator, a similar publication that ran for eight years.
