«Über die Liebe» is a selection of texts on love by Giacomo Casanova, published by Goldmann Wilhelm GmbH in paperback (156 pages, in German).
The volume brings together fragments in which Casanova reflects on love from his own experience: youthful memories, feelings and encounters, such as the one he evokes with Camilla, in the context of eighteenth-century sentimental relationships.
The volume appeared in 1987; the edition was prepared by Wolfgang Ebersberger and published as no. 8874 of Goldmann.
Intended for readers interested in the historical figure of Casanova and in eighteenth-century European literature.
Giacomo Girolamo Casanova was an adventurer and writer who was born in the Republic of Venice and travelled extensively throughout Europe. He is chiefly remembered for his autobiography, written in French and published posthumously as Histoire de ma vie. That work has come to be regarded as a unique and provocative source of information on the customs and norms of European social life in the 18th century.
