Volume 01: Childhood" is an autobiographical account written in the late 19th century that chronicles the life of the infamous Venetian adventurer and libertine, Giacomo Casanova. This first volume focuses on his formative years, detailing his birth, family lineage, and early experiences that would shape his character and future exploits. Casanova’s narrative is expected to delve into themes of love, adventure, and a philosophical examination of freedom, morality, and human relationships. At the start of the memoirs, we are introduced to Casanova’s lineage, tracing back to his ancestors, particularly his father, who was an illegitimate son and a skilled man of letters. The memoir recalls his mother’s career as an actress and Casanova's struggles with health issues during early childhood, including mysterious nosebleeds. A significant episode involves a visit to a witch who purportedly cures him, intertwining childhood innocence with early glimpses of the supernatural. This period sets the stage for his development, characterized by curiosity and a growing sense of self-awareness, culminating in a transition to studying in Padua, where he begins to explore his burgeoning intellect and fledgling experiences with love.
