Diary of Samuel Pepys — Complete 1664 N.S.
Produced by David Widger
"Diary of Samuel Pepys — Complete 1664 N.S." by Samuel Pepys is a historical account written in the mid-17th century. This diary provides an intimate glimpse into the daily life, personal reflections, and the political and social landscape of London during a transformative period in English history, marked notably by the Restoration of Charles II. The author, Samuel Pepys, serves as the central character, chronicling his experiences, observations, and interactions in a candid and engaging manner. The opening of the diary introduces readers to Pepys's life in the year 1664, where he reflects on various events such as receiving a notable New Year's gift and his experiences at the theater. Pepys details his social interactions with friends and family, discussions on business matters related to his position in the Admiralty, and his endeavors to manage personal finances. These entries reveal his meticulous nature in record-keeping, alongside hints of his complicated domestic life, as he navigates personal motivations and societal expectations. Through his entries, readers are drawn into the socio-political intrigues of the time, as well as the vibrant everyday life of a man deeply engaged with the world around him.
