	Giacomo Casanova - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Casanova was born in Venice in 1725 to actress Zanetta Farussi, wife of actor Gaetano Giuseppe Casanova.

		Casanova retired in 1785 and became the librarian to Count Joseph Karl von Waldstein, a chamberlain of the emperor, in the Castle of Dux, Bohemia (now Duchcov Castle, Czech Republic) where he died in 1798 at age 73.

		Certainly, Casanova shows a striking ability to reconstruct events and impressions from his "follies of youth." While the authenticity of some events included in his memoirs is questionable, one suspects that Casanova's accounts are largely true, and that any deviations that occur are for the sake of literary considerations.
		Casanova's parents were actors, and the young Casanova was frequently left in the care of his grandmother after his father died and his mother had to fend for herself as an actress.
		Casanova was sent to Padua at the age of nine (1734) to recover from a life-threatening blood ailment.

	Giacomo Casanova - Wikipedia
		Giacomo Girolamo Casanova (Venezia, 2 aprile 1725 - Dux, odierna Duchcov, 4 giugno 1798), il cui nome è divenuto (con un po' di superficialità) sinonimo di seduttore a causa delle avventure descritte, senza mezzi temini, nella sua maggiore opera autobiografica "Storia della mia vita", fu uno scrittore molto prolifico.
		Casanova si prodigò per darle aiuto ma incorse in una denuncia, per concorso in pratiche abortive, presentata da una ostetrica, Reine Demay, in combutta con un losco personaggio, Louis Castel-Bajac, per estorcere denaro in cambio di una ritrattazione.
		Ceduti i suoi interessi nella lotteria, Casanova si imbarcò in una fallimentare operazione imprenditoriale (una manifattura di tessuti) che naufragò anche a causa di una forte restrizione delle esportazioni derivante dalla guerra in corso.

	Giacomo Casanova's 'The Duel' reviewed on the official website of Laura Hird
		The Pole accepts, wants Casanova to choose his weapons, but is suspicious as to why the duel should take place the next day and turns up at Casanova’s address to arrange something a little sooner.
		What is so utterly bizarre to the modern reader is the way two men who are about to shoot at one another can arrange the thing with such attention to politeness and codes of conduct, even going so far to embrace and declare their mutual admiration and respect.
		What is clear is that neither Casanova nor the Pole are really interested in the ballerina who was the cause of the whole dispute.

		Its language is a triumph of richly crafted French prose (we know its author worked and reworked his narrative), which was first rendered into excellently apt English by Willard Trask in the 1960s.
		It is vital, sharp, racy but mercifully discreet--no Anglo-Saxon four-letter words but only "conquests," "combats, "pleasures" and "crimes" committed in the name of "love." The pace never flags--for all of the customary repetitiveness of Casanova's sexual exploits, this is a grippingly good read.
