Casanova, Giacomo
"Index of the Project Gutenberg Memoirs of Casanova" by Giacomo Casanova is an index to the memoir written between 1789 and 1798. This massive 3,700-page manuscript chronicles the legendary Venetian adventurer's life from birth through 1774. Written in French rather than his native Italian, the work spans twelve volumes and approximately 1.2 million words. The original manuscript endured a complex journey through censorship, mistranslations, and family inheritance before its authentic version finally emerged in 1960, over 160 years after Casanova's death.
