Not only a passionate diarist, Pepys was also a prolific correspondent who lived through and wrote about all the key events and leading individuals of his time: the Restoration of Charles II, the Great Plague, the Fire of London, the raid of the Dutch fleet in the river Medway, the Kings mistresses. Through a series of essays by leading experts, this publication reveals the rich diversity of his career and interests from the theatre, to advances in science and development of the Royal Navy. His life was so utterly entwined with the extraordinary period he lived through he was even a witness to the beheading of Charles I that the book becomes a portrait of the age. Each chapter has two or three essays followed by discussion of specific objects and paintings. 505 0 $a Turbulent times -- The restoration -- Pepys and the Navy -- Scientific enquiry -- Revolution and Pepys's retirement. 600 10 $a Pepys, Samuel, $d 1633-1703 $v Exhibitions. 610 10 $a Great Britain. $b Royal Navy $x Officials and employees $v Biography. 650 0 $a Authors, English $y Early modern, 1500-1700 $v Biography. 651 0 $a Great Britain $x History $y Stuarts, 1603-1714. 651 0 $a Great Britain $x Social life and customs $y 17th century. 700 1 $a Lincoln, Margarette, $e editor. 710 2 $a National Maritime Museum (Great Britain), $e host institution. 856 4 $3 Inhaltsverzeichnis $u http://swbplus.bsz-bw.de/bsz452095867inh.htm $v 20151214114612 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20161103032947.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=0D2F8C8A6B5411E69AFE1DDBDAD10320 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
