Produktinformation

Memoirs of Casanova (1792) is the autobiography of Italian adventure and socialite Giacomo Casanova. Written at the end of his life, the Memoirs capture the experiences of one of Europe's most notorious figures, a man whose escapades as a gambler, womanizer, and socialite are matched only by his unique gift for sharing them with the world. More than perhaps any other man, Casanova sought to emulate the lessons of the Enlightenment on the level of everyday life, a sentiment captured perfectly in the opening sentence of his Memoirs: "I will begin with this confession: whatever I have done in the course of my life, whether it be good or evil, has been done freely; I am a free agent."Memoirs of Casanova Volume XII finds Giacomo Casanova back in Paris. Using his abundant wit and ability to make connections, Casanova has found success as a spy and diplomat for the French government. At the start of the Seven Years' War, he is sent on a mission to Holland to procure financial backing for the treasury through the sale of discounted bonds. There, he acquires the largest fortune of his life, making enough to open a silk manufactory. Turning down a title and pension, he manages to squander his earnings through mismanagement, ill-advised investments, and sexual impropriety. Soon, despite his recent success streak, the mercurial Casanova once again finds himself in trouble with the law. With a beautifully designed cover and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of Giacomo Casanova's Memoirs of Casanova is a classic of European literature reimagined for modern readers.
