Richard Steele

    Richard Steele fue un escritor y político irlandés, recordado como cofundador de la revista The Spectator junto a su amigo Joseph Addison. Sus escritos a menudo profundizan en la naturaleza humana y las observaciones sociales, empleando una aguda perspicacia y un estilo ingenioso para cautivar y provocar la reflexión. La habilidad de Steele para entrelazar el humor con la reflexión seria le abrió un nicho único en la literatura.
