Description

"The Memoirs of Jacques Casanova de Seingalt, 1725-1798. Volume 22: to London" is part of Giacomo Casanova's memoir written in French during the late 18th century. This volume chronicles the legendary Venetian adventurer's life journey, capturing the world of an educated 18th-century European wanderer. The complete work spans twelve volumes and approximately 3,500 pages, though Casanova's narrative ends in 1774. His manuscript, preserved through family hands and publishing ventures, survived censorship, war, and translation controversies before the original French text was finally published in its unexpurgated form in the 1960s.
