Mr. Spectator is a learned person exposed to foreign culture and ways of thinking
because of his travels abroad. His mind stored with wit, humour and knowledge
of these civilizations and their ways, was a store house of ideas. Added to this,
wisdom was his intimate acquaintance with ancient and modern books in different
languages. His observing eye makes him compare and contrast different cultures
and civilizations for their manners, mores, customs, traditions and peculiarities.
In the words of Addison, the spectator had made himself a speculative statesman,
soldier, merchant or artisan without ever meddling with any practical part in life.
His classical ideal suggests the value of ancient wisdom for self improvement.
The middle class culture and character gets itself exposed and defined in authentic
way in the essays of Addison.
