Sobre este artículo
Knopf Publishing Group, November 2002. First American. Hardcover . Very Good/Good. Pepys (1633-1703) was renowned in his lifetime as a bureaucrat, a key figure in the British navy, friend and colleague of the powerful. He was the author of very frank diaries, in which he set down his own experiences as a womanizer and young man-about-town. Tomalin has intimately explored Pepys's entire life, including the diary years. Light shelf wear and a 5mm closed tear on the jacket. A lightly bumped corner and some sunning on the top edge of the boards.
Sinopsis
Samuel Pepys achieved fame as a naval administrator, a friend and colleague of the powerful and learned, a figure of substance. But for nearly ten years he kept a private diary in which he recorded, with unparalleled openness and sensitivity to the turbulent world around him, exactly what it was like to be a young man in Restoration London. This diary lies at the heart of Claire Tomalin's biography. Yet the use she makes of it - and of other hitherto unexamined material - is startlingly fresh and original. Within and beyond the narrative of Pepys's extraordinary career, she explores his inner life - his relations with women, his fears and ambitions, his political shifts, his agonies and his delights.
