Book Description
The name of Giacomo Casanova (1725-1798) is known to every adult. It became proverbial - a generic name of an adventurous womanizer. A remorseless sinner, but also a doctor of law. A convicted magician who escaped from the highest security prison - but also a brilliant conversationalist whose company was shared by Frederick the Great and Voltaire. A shameless, immoral, intelligent and well-educated personality. Our reader can now hear about Casanova from his own account.

According to Wikipedia: "Giacomo Girolamo Casanova de Seingalt (1725-1798) was a Venteitian adveturers and author. His main book Histoire de ma vie (History of My Life), part autobiography and part memoir, is regarded as one of the most authentic sources of the customs and norms of European social life during the 18th century. So famous a womanizer was the Italian-born libertine Giacomo Casanova that, a full two centuries after his death, his name remains synonymous with the art of seduction. But for the years he spent in the employ of Count Waldstein of Bohemia as a librarian, Casanova, "the world's greatest lover" at one time the company of European royalty, popes and cardinals, and man known to the likes of Voltaire, Goethe and Mozart would have been consigned to obscurity."

Book Description
Award-winning translation of the complete memoirs of Casanova available for the first time in paperback. In volumes 5 and 6, Casanova brings his flight from the Inquisitor's prison in Venice to a happy conclusion. Exiled from Venice, he goes to Munich and Paris, where he establishes himself as a cabalist, makes a fortune in Holland, helps start the French State Lottery, goes on to Switzerland where he meets Voltaire. Because every previous edition of Casanova's Memoirs had been abridged to suppress the author's political and religious views and tame his vivid, often racy, style, the literary world considered it a major event when Willard R. Trask's translation of the complete original text was published in six double volumes between 1966 and 1971. Trask's award-winning translation now appears in paperback for the first time.
