Original author: Giacomo Casanova

CompletedPublished Updated

"The Memoirs of Jacques Casanova de Seingalt, 1725-1798. Complete" by Giacomo Casanova is an unfinished memoir written between 1789 and 1798. This sprawling autobiography chronicles the life of a famous Venetian adventurer through 1774, spanning twelve volumes and over a million words. Written in French rather than his native Italian, Casanova's account captures the world of an 18th-century bon vivant. The manuscript's tumultuous journey—through family hands, censored translations, and wartime survival—mirrors the adventurous spirit of its author, remaining unpublished in its original form until 1960.

The Memoirs of Jacques Casanova de Seingalt, 1725-1798. Complete, by Giacomo Casanova. Republished by OpenStories from Project Gutenberg eBook #2981.
