DIARY OF SAMUEL PEPYS, THE(ISBN=9780812970715) chm umd 阿里云 下载 夸克云 pdf azw3 kindle

　　Richard Le Gallienne’s elegant abridgment of the Diary

captures the essential writings of Samuel Pepys (1633–1703), a

remarkable man who witnessed the coronation of Charles II, the

Great Plague of 1665, and the Great Fire of 1666. Originally

scribbled in a cryptic shorthand, Pepys’s quotidian journal of life

in Restoration London provides an astonishingly frank and diverting

account of political intrigues; naval, church, and cultural

affairs; and the sexual escapades and domestic strife of a man with

a voracious, childlike appetite for living. “As a human document

the Diary is literally unique,” notes Le Gallienne. “It will

have a still greater value for its historical importance.”
