Although the story of Bellino is reportedly true, the real Bellino was actually named Teressa Lanti, and she bore a son rather than a daughter. The real Casanova never knew of him. Interestingly enough, the name Teressa Lanti was reused in the making of the BBC's version of Casanova as the name of the nun who bears Jack, Casanova's son.

Grimani: How can the church maintain its authority when the language itself is beyond reason? For example; in the Latin, can anyone explain to me why the word for vagina is masculine and the word for penis feminine, he had no answer.
