Giacomo Girolamo Casanova was born in Venice, Italy. He was an Italian author and librarian. His autobiography, The Story of My Life, is regarded as one of the most authentic sources of the customs and norms of European social life during the 18th century. He often signed his works Jacques Casanova de Seingalt after he began writing in French following his second exile from Venice. He has become so famous for his often complicated and elaborate affairs with women that his name is now synonymous with "womanizer". He spent his last years in Bohemia as a librarian in Count Waldstein's household, where he also wrote the story of his life. He wrote other books include: The Many Loves of Casanova and Icosameron.
