After wandering from Naples to Rome in search of a patron, he enters the service of Cardinal Acquaviva.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout this edition: \u003c\/strong\u003eBecause every previous edition of Casanova's \u003cem\u003eMemoirs\u003c\/em\u003e had been abridged to suppress the author's political and religious views and tame his vivid, often racy, style, the literary world considered it a major event when Willard R.
