ISBN: 9780801856624.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAward-winning translation of the complete memoirs of Casanova available for the first time in paperback.\nIn volumes 1 and 2, Casanova tells the story of his family, his first loves, and his early travels. With the death of his grandmother, he is sent to a seminary―but is soon expelled. He is briefly imprisoned in the fortress of Sant Andrea. After wandering from Naples to Rome in search of a patron, he enters the service of Cardinal Acquaviva.\nBecause every previous edition of Casanovas Memoirs had been abridged to suppress the authors political and religious views and tame his vivid, often racy, style, the literary world considered it a major event when Willard R. Trasks translation of the complete original text was published in six double volumes between 1966 and 1971. Trasks award-winning translation now appears in paperback for the first time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Johns Hopkins University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44946099601461,"sku":"ByrdShop_0801856620","price":41.04,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780801856624_94312eb4-876c-44cd-9584-a1204979054c.jpg?v=1778798310","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/history-of-my-life-vols-12-9780801856624","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
