Produced by David Widger
"Diary of Samuel Pepys — Volume 59: November 1667" by Samuel Pepys is a historical account written in the 17th century during the Restoration period following the English Civil War. The book presents a firsthand narrative through the personal diaries of Pepys, who served as a naval administrator and clerk to the Admiralty, detailing his daily experiences and observations in London and his insights into the political events of his time. In this volume, Pepys chronicles his life in November 1667, reflecting on significant political turmoil, including the impeachment proceedings against prominent figures such as Lord Chancellor Clarendon. He provides a vivid account of his interactions with various political figures, including Sir W. Coventry and the Duke of York. Throughout the month, Pepys attends theaters, engages in discussions about naval affairs, and navigates the tensions of the Parliament as it deals with accusations of negligence in naval commands. His diary entries offer rich detail, intertwining his personal life and public concerns, while capturing the political intrigue and social atmosphere of Restoration England.
