Question

Which publication first featured “The Trumpet Club”?

• A. The Spectator
• B. The Guardian
• C. The Tatler
• D. The Examiner

Answer 1

Answer:

C. The Tatler

“The Trumpet Club” was published in The Tatler, specifically in Issue No. 107, dated February 11, 1710. Steele founded The Tatler in 1709 with the aim of combining news, essays, and commentary on manners and society, often with a humorous or satirical edge. This essay fits perfectly into that mold.
