Paris by Giacomo Casanova
""Paris"" is a memoir written by the famous Italian adventurer and writer, Giacomo Casanova. The book is a vivid and detailed account of Casanova's experiences in Paris during the mid-18th century. Casanova's memoir is divided into twelve volumes, each of which provides a unique perspective on the city of Paris and its inhabitants. Throughout the book, Casanova describes his encounters with the French aristocracy, his romantic liaisons with various women, and his observations on the social and cultural life of Paris.The book is notable for its frank and often scandalous descriptions of Casanova's sexual exploits, as well as its detailed depictions of the opulent lifestyles of the French elite. However, ""Paris"" is also a valuable historical document, providing insights into the political and cultural climate of 18th century France.Overall, ""Paris"" is a fascinating and entertaining read, offering readers a glimpse into the life of one of history's most notorious adventurers and the vibrant city that he called home.I thought that my newly-found cousin was unknown to me, but when I looked at her with more attention, I fancied I recollected her features. She was the Catinella, a dancer of reputation, but I had never spoken to her before. I easily guessed that she was giving me an impromptu part in a play of her own composition, and I was to be a 'deux ex machina'.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
