9. The Diary and Pepys Material
The manuscript of the Diary is held at the Pepys Library, Magdalene College, Cambridge. Of the three transcriptions, John Smith’s manuscript is also held at the Pepys Library. It was the basis of the first edition, Lord Braybrooke (ed.), Memoirs of Samuel Pepys… Deciphered by the Revd John Smith… and Selection from Private Correspondence, 2 vols., 1825. Mynors Bright’s transcription, finished in 1875, has been lost; it was published 1875–9. Henry Wheatley’s edition of 1893–9, which drew on both Braybrooke and Bright, has notes and a good index; I have found the 1926 edition useful. The complete and definitive edition, edited and transcribed by Robert Latham and William Matthews (1970–83), is in 11 vols., one containing an index, vol. X a companion.
