The Tatler, Volume 4 by Sir Richard Steele and Joseph Addison
"The Tatler, Volume 4" by Sir Richard Steele and Joseph Addison is a periodical published between 1709-1711. This pioneering journal revolutionized British journalism by presenting polished essays on manners and society through the persona of Isaac Bickerstaff. Each issue delivered news and gossip supposedly gathered from London's fashionable coffeehouses, mixing real observations with invented tales. The publication featured contributions from literary luminaries including Jonathan Swift, offering Whiggish commentary while instructing readers on
proper conduct. Its innovative approach established a template that would influence British essayists for generations. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
