Summary "The Memoirs of Jacques Casanova de Seingalt, 1725-1798. Volume 16: Depart Switzerland" by Jacques Casanova is a historical account written during the late 19th century. This volume focuses on Casanova's adventures following his departure from Switzerland, detailing his experiences and encounters in Grenoble and other nearby locations. The narrative offers a blend of personal reflection, romance, and social commentary, highlighting Casanova’s interactions with various characters, particularly women, throughout his travels. At the start of the memoir, Casanova finds himself in Grenoble after leaving a previous location, enjoying a comfortable new lodging while socializing with local nobility. He is introduced to a number of intriguing women, including Mdlle. Roman, a beauty who captivates him, as well as her modest cousin and the door-keeper's daughters, who serve him during his stay. Casanova’s narrative is characterized by his reflections on his not-so-simple relationship with love and desire, revealing his charm and wit as he navigates social gatherings, seizes opportunities for romance, and engages in astrological folly for amusement. The opening establishes the tone of indulgence and exploration that defines Casanova's life and adventures. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
