Diary of Samuel Pepys — Volume 22: May/June 1663
Produced by David Widger
"Diary of Samuel Pepys — Volume 22: May/June 1663" by Samuel Pepys is a historical account written during the mid-17th century. This volume continues the personal diary of Samuel Pepys, a prominent naval administrator in England, chronicling his daily life, work, and the sociopolitical landscape of Restoration England. The text offers a detailed look at Pepys's interactions with his family, colleagues, and the court, capturing the nuances of his aspirations, frustrations, and personal relationships. The opening of this volume details the early days of May 1663, as Pepys manages family financial matters regarding the Brampton estate and interacts with his father and uncle. It showcases snapshots of his daily routine, including visits to the park, conversations about the affairs of the navy, and his tumultuous relationship with his wife, which is marked by jealousy concerning her dancing master, Mr. Pembleton. Among mundane yet intimate observations, Pepys reflects on societal changes, the court's dynamics, and his own self-development through dancing lessons, all encapsulated within the broader social upheaval of the time. The beginning sets a tone of both personal and public intrigue, inviting readers into the complexities of Pepys's world. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
