He was educated at Charterhouse, where he was a classmate of Richard Steele, and at Oxford, where he became a distinguished classical scholar. His travels on the Continent from 1699 to 1703 were recorded in Remarks on Italy (1705). Addison first achieved prominence with The Campaign (1704), an epic celebrating the victory of Marlborough at Blenheim. The poem was commissioned by Lord Halifax, and its great success resulted in Addison's appointment in 1705 as undersecretary of state and in 1709 as secretary to the lord lieutenant of Ireland. He also held a seat in Parliament from 1708 until his death. Addison's most enduring fame was achieved as an essayist. In 1710 he began his contributions to the Tatler, which Richard Steele had founded in 1709. He continued to write for successive publications, including the Spectator Guardian (1713), and the new

He wrote favourable (whether commissioned, or not) articles concerning certain powerful people and their works; he was duly rewarded with a pension of £300 which allowed Addison to travel extensively throughout the continent for four years. With the victory at Blenheim , in 1704, Addison was commissioned to write The Campaign and this led to further political patronage; he was appointed as a Commissioner of Excise Taxes (the only significant taxes they had in those days). The job as a commissioner, presumably, took little of Addison's time and he was left to pursue his writing. While he had contributed to the Tatler (started by Steele in 1709), Addison started his own paper in 1711, the Spectator ("In the Spectator may be traced the foundations of all that is sound and healthy in modern English thought."

Back to texts Joseph Addison (1672-1719) PAPERS FROM THE SPECTATOR 1711-12 No 58. Monday, May 7, I7II Ut pictura poesis erit HOR. As the great and only end of these my speculations is to banish vice and ignorance out of the territories of Great Britain, I shall endeavour as much as possible to establish among us a taste of polite writing. It is with this view that I have endeavoured to set my readers right in several points relating to operas and tragedies; and shall from time to time impart my notions of comedy, as I think they may tend to its refinement and perfection. I find by my bookseller that these papers of criticism, with that upon humour, have met with a more kind reception than indeed I could have hoped for from such subjects; for which reason I shall enter upon my present undertaking with greater cheerfulness. In this and one or two following papers, I shall trace out the history of false wit, and distinguish the several kinds of it as they have prevailed in different ages of the world. This I think the more necessary at present, because I observed there were attempts on foot last winter to revive some of those antiquated modes of wit that have been long exploded out of the commonwealth of letters. There were several satires and panegyrics handed about in acrostic, by which means some of the most arrant undisputed blockheads about the town began to entertain ambitious thoughts, and to set up for polite authors. I shall therefore describe at length those many arts of false wit, in which a writer does not show himself a man of a beautiful genius, but of great industry.

Illustrations Title page 53 Kb (Jpeg) The Spectator, No. 5 105 Kb (Jpeg) Addison, Joseph. The Works of the Right Honourable Joseph Addison, Esq. Volume 2 London, 1721 In the Tuesday, March 6, 1711, Spectator , Addison rails at the absurdities of Italian opera, singling out for ridicule the staging in Handel's Rinaldo . In particular, he makes light of the unleashing of sparrows in one of the opera scenes in order to enhance the setting depicting a delightful grove of trees. He asks why the birds had to be real when, in the end, their music "proceeded from a consort of flageolets and Bird-calls" which came from behind the scenes. "A little skill in criticism," Addison writes, "would inform us, that shadows and realities ought not to be mixed together in the same piece; and that the scenes which are designed as the representations of nature, should be filled with resemblances, and not with things themselves." Later in the essay Addison warns that freeing birds in the opera house may not be considered such a pleasant spectacle when they cause "inconveniences" to the heads of those in the audience.

Volume 1 London, 1721 In Tickell's three-volume work, the first to present a collected edition of Addison's writings, we find a libretto for an opera entitled Rosamond . Addison wrote the text in 1707. During the early 1700's English opera had no one to give it musical direction in the way Henry Purcell (c.1659-1695) had done in the previous decades. Italian opera began to dominate. Thomas Clayton (c.1670-c.1730), the supposed successor to Purcell, actually helped to establish the Italian taste in the English theater. In 1706 he cooperated in the successful performance of , an English libretto written by Peter Motteux; Clayton prepared the music for the text by reworking arias he had brought from Italy. Recognizing the declining state of the English musical theater, Addison himself decided to write a libretto for an opera. Unfortunately he asked Clayton to compose the music for his words. The piece met with utter failure, for, when left to his own ingenuity, Clayton as a composer was hardly a successor to Purcell.

Joseph Addison Quotations Memorable Quotations: English Writers of the Past at Amazon To a man of pleasure every moment appears to be lost, which partakes not of the vivacity of amusement. Authors have established it as a kind of rule, that a man ought to be dull sometimes; as the most severe reader makes allowances for many rests and nodding-places in a voluminous writer. What sculpture is to a block of marble, education is to a human soul. Friendships, in general, are suddenly contracted; and therefore it is no wonder they are easily dissolved. The utmost extent of man's knowledge, is to know that he knows nothing. Sunday clears away the rust of the whole week. Suspicion is not less an enemy to virtue than to happiness; he that is already corrupt is naturally suspicious, and he that becomes suspicious will quickly be corrupt.
