Old Age And Death (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781162676838)

Old Age And Death by Jacques Casanova is a thought-provoking and insightful exploration of the human experience of aging and mortality. Drawing on his own experiences and observations, as well as the wisdom of philosophers and poets throughout history, Casanova reflects on the physical, emotional, and spiritual challenges of growing old and facing the end of life. With clarity and compassion, he examines the ways in which aging affects our relationships, our sense of self, and our understanding of the world around us. He also offers practical advice for living a fulfilling and meaningful life in old age, and for preparing ourselves and our loved ones for the inevitable journey toward death. Whether you are young or old, this book will inspire you to think deeply about the meaning of life and the value of every moment we are given.Intimately connected with Casanova's life at this period was a girl named Francesca Buschini. This name does not appear in any of the literary, artistic or theatrical records of the period, and, of the girl, nothing is known other than that which she herself tells us in her letters to Casanova. From these very human letters, however, we may obtain, not only certain facts, but also, a very excellent idea of her character.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
