Diary of Samuel Pepys — Volume 58: October 1667
Produced by David Widger
"Diary of Samuel Pepys — Volume 58: October 1667" by Samuel Pepys is a historical account written in the late 17th century. The book is a continuation of the detailed diary entries of Samuel Pepys, who served as a naval administrator and is known for his meticulous records of daily life and significant events during the Restoration period in England. This volume specifically captures Pepys's reflections and activities in October 1667, including his dealings in the Navy, interactions with political figures, and thoughts on the music, plays, and personal relationships that constituted his daily life. At the start of this volume, Pepys describes a series of routine days filled with work and social engagements. The entries depict his time spent at the office dealing with naval accounts, dining with influential figures, and attending performances at the King's House. There are insights into his personal feelings about the music he hears, reflecting a blend of both admiration and criticism. Pepys also comments on the health of his colleagues, the politics surrounding naval management, as well as his growing concerns regarding financial matters related to his position and the state of affairs within the government. As he navigates through social customs and administrative duties, his reflections reveal a complex interplay of ambition, personal relationships, and the pressures of his professional responsibilities.
