Buon esemplare.Lo Spettatore può essere considerato uno dei primi periodici inglese che apparve quotidianamente dal 1711 al 1712. Addison pensava che, nonostante la circolazione giornaliera di 4.000 copie, queste vennero lette da circa 60.000 londinesi. Lo Spettatore era molto popolare e venne ripubblicato molte volte durante il XVIII secolo. Esso indaga con sguardo ironico la società inglese e segnala duramente il rilascio delle sue novità. Ogni numero era di circa 2000 parole e Addison e Steele condividevano la scrittura. Lo Spettatore nella versione attuale è ora un noto giornale inglese.

The Spectator can be considered one of the first English periodicals that appeared daily from 1711 to 1712. Addison thought that despite the daily circulation of 4,000 copies, these were read by about 60,000 Londoners. The Spectator was very popular and was republished many times during the 18th century. It investigates English society with an ironic gaze and harshly signals the release of its novelties. Each issue was about 2,000 words, and Addison and Steele shared the writing. The Spectator in its current version is now a well-known English newspaper.
