The Mottoes of the Spectators, Tatlers, and Guardians is a book written by Thomas Broughton in 1737. The book is a collection of the mottos used in the popular British periodicals The Spectator, The Tatler, and The Guardian, which were published in the early 18th century. These mottos were short phrases or quotations that were printed at the beginning of each issue, and were intended to provide a theme or moral lesson for the reader. Broughton's book includes all of the mottos used in the three periodicals, along with a brief explanation of their meaning and significance. The book is organized by publication, with the mottos from each issue listed in chronological order. In addition to the mottos themselves, the book also provides some historical context for the periodicals and their significance in 18th century British literature. Broughton notes that these publications were influential in shaping public opinion and discourse during a time of great social and political change in Britain. Overall, The Mottoes of the Spectators, Tatlers, and Guardians is a valuable resource for scholars and students of 18th century British literature and history, as well as anyone interested in the development of the English language and literary tradition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
