Samuel Pepys' Diary

Peter Zagel of Germany wrote in "Cambridge - History and Culture": "I prefer Samuel Pepys, who was a contemporary of Dryden, not because he admired Cambridge University more. Samuel visited Cambridge University many times, and finally donated his private library, a treasure trove of lost paintings, to his alma mater Magdalen College. Unlike Dryden, when we read Pepys's works today, we still read them as we did from the beginning. With the same interest as previous readers, this is the diary of a craftsman's son who eventually rose to the highest levels of the naval leadership. He describes his daily life so vividly that we seem to see him alive before us, seeing him visit Magdalen College on May 25, 1668. "I drank a belly of beer there, which made me happy, and it was the best beer I ever drank." Samuel Pepys (1633~1703) Not only did he leave his private library to his alma mater, Magdalen College, but he also left behind no less than 3,000 pages of shorthand diary that made him famous. After graduating from university he served as the organizer of a powerful fleet in his native London. Pipps was a sailing expert, royal club president, parliamentarian, art lover and a "joyful man" who loved life, was well-informed, curious and vain - ideal conditions for a classic diary. Pepys recorded marriages and national events in meticulous detail, and was an unusually candid and witty chronicler. He visited Cambridge many times, and the words often repeated in his diary seem to interpret his life: "We are very happy. " Children, if you don't know Samuel Pepys (1633-1703), it doesn't matter. I translated Samuel Pepys' Diary just to let the Chinese know about him. If you want to know more about him, look here and here: http://www. Douban. Com/group/SamuelPepys/. Known for its gentle "old-world charm," "Pips' Diary" is a famous bedside book for Western families. Original address: http://www. Pepys. Info/ P.

Html Currently, I have purchased various electronic versions, including complete works and anthologies, many of which were purchased from Gutenberg. I bought a compendium of diaries. Although it is a compilation, it is still a thick brick that can kill someone (it has the sweet and sweet smell of ancient books); there is also a biography of Pipps. Alas, the two books combined are quite a lot~ I love it so much. The original text has more than 3 million words, and the annotations are even more incredible. I really hope it can be translated in my lifetime~ My level is limited and mistakes are inevitable. Criticisms and corrections are very welcome. Plagiarism will be investigated and no reproduction without permission is allowed. If you are caught, you will be slapped down. I'll flip through it slowly, and you'll read it slowly.
