Description
A fascinating journey with Giacomo Casanova through the Gulf of Venice, along the coasts of Istria and Dalmatia to Constantinople. Based on his memoirs and unpublished materials, all the stages of his sailing are described: Chioggia, Trieste, Istrian Island, Vrsar, Novigrad, Pula, Rijeka, Zadar, Nona, Split, Korcula, Dubrovnik, Budua, Corfu, Zakynthos, and Constantinople. Special attention is devoted to his mode of travel: ships and galleys, carriages and horses, diseases and quarantines. The second part of this volume presents a journey through the myth of Casanova up to the twentieth century, through literature, film, art, gadgets and comics. Text in Italian and English with more than 150 images.
