Sobre este artículo
London : Penguin, 2000. First Edition. Hardcover. Fine copy in the original color printed boards. Particularly and uncommonly well-preserved; tight, bright, clean and especially sharp-cornered. Series; Classic history. Physical description; 333 p. : ill., map, port. Notes; This edition first published: Book Club Associates by arrangement with George Rainbird, 1979. This selection is from the new and complete transcription of The Diary of Samuel Pepys edited by Robert Lathan and William Matthews and published by Bell & Hyman. Originally published: Book Club Associates, 1979. Summary; Pepys's diary has long been recognized as one of the most remarkable in the English language, but it has been impossible until recent times to print it as he wrote it. Little academic work had been done on it and legal restrictions prevented the publication of its frankest passages in which Pepys describes his vigorous love life. In the pages reproduced here, the public events of the 1660s - the politics of the Restoration, the Dutch War, the Plague, the Great Fire of London - are interwoven with a diverting account of Pepys colourful private life.
