Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. "iacomo Girolamo Casanova April 1725 - 4 June 1798) was an Italian adventurer and author from the Republic of Venice. His autobiography, Histoire de ma vie (Story of My Life), is regarded as one of the most authentic sources of the customs and norms of European social life during the 18th century. As was not uncommon at the time, Casanova often used pseudonyms, the most frequent being Chevalier de Seingalt. He also published abundantly in French under the name Jacques Casanova de Seingalt. He has become so famous for his often complicated and elaborate affairs with women that his name is now synonymous with "womanizer". He associated with European royalty, popes and cardinals, along with luminaries such as Voltaire, Goethe and Mozart. He spent his last years in Bohemia as a librarian in Count Waldstein's household, where he also wrote the story of his life." Six volume set. Octavo-sized volumes bound in green cloth. From private collection. Clean, unmarked set. Only the second volume has its dust jacket. Front hinge of Volume VI is starting. Edges of book blocks show a little soiling from shelf wear. Cloth is a little faded along the spine of some volumes.

Early Printing. Octavo. Six volumes. ills. Pictorial dust jackets. Full cloth in hunting green with gitl titles on spine. Royal purple endpapers. Mild edgewear and a few short, closed tears to some volumes. Overall, a bright and attractive set. Near Fine. Casanova --so complete is his fame that his name is a pronoun, a noun and a verb. Casanova's fame, however, rests securely on his own shoulders (well, perhaps lower), for it is his autobiography which made him a legend. Venice, in the 18th century, was a part of the European Grand Tour and Venetian tourism specialized in "pleasure" which included everything from theater to the open pursuit of social vices. The son of professional entertainers, Casanova soon discovered that a career as a lawyer was not for him and thus began a life-long adventure affronting "common decency". Careful reading of his autobiography, unveils Casanova's keen insight into the customs and manners of Europe during the 1700s and reveals his unique writing talent, discovered late in his life, during dull moments as a librarian. Illustrated dust jackets depict Casanova at different stages of his "purple reign".
