| Summary | "The Memoirs of Jacques Casanova de Seingalt, Vol. II (of VI), 'To Paris and…’" is an autobiographical account written in the late 18th century. This volume continues the adventures of the infamous libertine Jacques Casanova, renowned for his romantic entanglements and escapades throughout Europe. In this installment, Casanova recounts his journey to Paris, where themes of love, desire, and personal evolution unfold as he navigates relationships and societal intricacies during a historically rich period. At the start of this volume, Casanova departs from Bologna, filled with hope and excitement as he embarks on a journey to Parma with Henriette, a woman with whom he is deeply enamored. The narrative dives into the romance between them, marked by a shift from despair to joyful affection as they revel in their newfound love. However, as they navigate their way through the complexities of society, including the need to mask their true identities from potential threats, hints of an impending conflict arise that foreshadows a more tumultuous journey ahead. The opening serves not only as a vivid depiction of passion and tenderness but also sets the stage for the challenges that love must confront amidst societal expectations and personal histories.
