Extractions: Samuel Pepys kept a diary for nine years, between 1660 and 1669. He wrote his diary in shorthand, which is a type of code. This was because it was very personal and there were many things written in it which he did not want other people, (especially his wife), to know about! Luckily for us, Samuel Pepys was a very observant man and his diary gives a very clear picture of what life was like in the 1660's. Also, Pepys was quite well connected. His cousin, Edward Mountagu, was a high-ranking naval officer, later to be given the title of 1st Earl of Sandwich by King Charles II. It was Mountagu who found a position for Pepys at the Navy Office in the City of London. Pepys proved to be an honest, hard-working man, with a talent for organization and a good eye for detail. He was promoted at the Navy Office as he showed himself capable of handling more responsibility. What makes Samual Pepys diary so special is that his cousin's position meant that he was able to be present at many important events, which, of course, he meticulously recorded in shorthand. For example, Pepys was aboard one of the ships which sailed to Holland to bring Charles II back to England. He attended King Charles II's coronation and he was also President of the Royal Society for a while. In fact, Pepys recorded everything in his diary. He gave vivid accounts of the Great Plague and the Great Fire of London. It is from him that we are able to relive the theater of the period, as well as fashion and popular food and drink. His diary has been of invaluable assistance to historians and has given much pleasure to its many readers.

Extractions: "1663/64 January 1st, At the Coffee-house, where much talking about a very rich widow, young and handsome, of one Sir Nicholas Gold's, a merchant, lately fallen, and of great courtiers that already look after her, her husband not dead a week yet. She is reckoned worth £80,000!" ( Pepys' Diary Samuel Pepys was born on February 23, 1633 into a family of limited means, but through wit and political skill became one of the most prominent politicians of his age. He attended St. Paul's School in London and afterwards departed for Cambridge where he gained a reputation as a great drinker. He was married at the age of twenty-two to a fifteen year-old French girl, Elizabeth, with whom he lived whilst serving under Edward Montagu, later the First Earl of Sandwich. It was while working for Montagu that he began his diary, which was to become the most important historical record of Restoration Britain. However, it was written in code (presumably to disguise dubious passages detailing his onanism and the like), and was not deciphered until the nineteenth century. Pepys began work at the Admiralty where he excelled, setting himself to work with great vigour. His tact and intelligence soon won him the favour of his employers. He became a Member of Parliament and implemented many far-reaching reforms, including the Ship Building Act, which restored the British naval ascendancy which had been threatened by the French and Dutch.

He was imprisoned in the Tower of London for six weeks after being accused of involvement in the Popish plot of 1678, a spurious anti-Catholic invention which alleged that Jesuits were plotting to assassinate the King, massacre Protestants, and set James, Duke of York, the King's Catholic brother, on the throne. With his exhaustive, colourful, utterly honest diaries, running from January 1 1660 to spring 1669, Pepys became an "accidental historian" of events such as the great fire of London and the plague, as well as everyday life in Restoration England. He recorded everything from the weather ("wett for two or three months together, beyond belief; almost not one fair day coming between till this day... ") to cultural excursions (A Midsummer Night's Dream was "the most insipid ridiculous play that ever I saw in my life") to adulterous fumbles (for which he employed a muddle of foreign words as well as his special shorthand, which took 150 years to be decoded).

http://www.ferdinando.org.uk/samuel_pepys.htm

Extractions: Home Parent Page We owe our knowledge of the London of the 1660s to Samuel Pepys, England's great diarist. He began his diary in 1660, the year that Puritan rule ended and the Restoration period began. After the seriousness and sobriety of the Puritan years, Londoners now took great pleasure in attending the reopened theatres, where they enjoyed the comedies of John Dryden and other Restoration dramatists. Pepys enjoyed London life to the full, and he wrote down practically everything he thought, felt, saw, or heard. He describes the city's churches, theatres, and taverns, its streets and homes, and even the clothes that he and his wife wore. Samuel Pepys was born in London on 23rd February, 1633. His father was a tailor. Young Pepys probably owed his education to his father's cousin, Sir Edward Montagu (the "My Lord" of the diary), who later became first earl of Sandwich. Pepys went to St. Paul's School in London and then to Cambridge University. At 22 he married a 15-year-old French girl, Elizabeth St. Michel. By 1655 Montagu had become an Admiral, and Pepys was a Clerk in his service. In 1660 Pepys was on the ship that brought Charles II back to England. Pepys had been poor up to this time. After the Restoration his career advanced rapidly, and he became secretary of the Admiralty.

http://www.magdalenecambridge.com/biog/pepys.html

Extractions: By origin the Pepyses were country folk who, from the 13th century onwards had held land around Cottenham in Cambridgeshire, including the manor of Impington. In 1618 Paulina Pepys married a brother of the 1st Earl of Manchester, Sir Sydney Mountagu, who in 1627 had acquired the house and estate of Hinchingbrooke, near Huntingdon. Samuel was sent off to Huntingdonshire in 1642 to live with his uncle, Robert Pepys of Brampton, who served in the household of his relatives, the Mountagus of Hinchingbrooke. Samuel attended the grammar school at Huntingdon, which counted amongst its ex-pupils not only Oliver Cromwell but also Edward Mountagu, the young squire of Hinchingbrooke. The latter, 8 years older than Samuel, inherited the Hinchingbrooke estate from his father, Sir Sydney, in 1644. Samuel Pepys returned to London after the civil war and entered St Paul's School. In his diary of November 1st 1660 he recalled how he rejoiced in the execution of Charles I. His future employer, Edward Mountagu, while a supporter of the parliamentary army, broke with his army colleagues over the execution and left politics for several years. Pepys meanwhile attended Magdalene College Cambridge, which today houses his Diary.

The roll of fame of Cambridge is immense, and it may be said that as Oxford was the home of lost causes Cambridge was for the most part the nursery of the new, whether in matters of faith, learning, or affairs of State. Erasmus and Coverdale, Latimer and Ridley and Cranmer, Cromwell and Milton, Francis Bacon and Isaac Newton, Clerk-Maxwell and Kelvin and Darwin, Wordsworth and Coleridge and Byron, Tennyson and Macaulay - all had much of that spirit which urged the world forward, and all are Cambridge men.

A Pepys Anthology
Samuel Pepys (16331703) is known as the first published diarist. His eleven-volumework, written between 1660 and 1669, was first published in 1825.
http://www.ucpress.edu/books/pages/2316.html

Extractions: "[Pepys] was not only Charles II's chief naval administrator, but a keen amateur of learning and an indefatigable enthusiast of politics, music, theater, women, life. He sets down his daily experience with a journalist's eye for detail, something of a novelist's sensitivity and, since he is writing for himself, a delightful frankness. The classic accounts of the Restoration, the Dutch War, the Plague and the Fire are here; but whether Pepys is describing national events, frantically searching at midnight for his buried gold or trying to placate his wife ("my wife . . . did find me imbracing the girl con my hand sub su coats"), he never fails to entertain." Publishers Weekly "Best of all there is the character of the diarist himself. For all his ambition, vanity and endless flair for self-deception, there is something irresistibly charming about him."Thomas D'Evelyn
