The Tatler (published 1709-11) is usually regarded as the first periodical publication in England. Its founder, Richard Steele (1672-1729), intended a paper which would report on news and gossip but not politics. This four-volume edition was first issued in 1797 by a consortium of publishers, including John Nichols.
