About this listen

 Dive into the enchanting world of the Book of the Thousand Nights and a Night, also known as Arabian Nights. This captivating collection features tales that have been woven together over centuries by a diverse array of authors, translators, and scholars. With roots tracing back to the Indian subcontinent, Persia, and Arabia, these stories blend mythology and folklore into a rich tapestry. Although no original manuscript exists, the collection is believed to have originated between AD 800-900. The narrative unfolds through the clever storytelling of Shahrazad, who uses cliffhangers to captivate her husband, King Shahryar, and delay her fate. Iconic tales like Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves and the adventures of Sinbad the Sailor are just a glimpse of the treasures found within this tenth volume, part of a sixteen-volume translation by Richard Francis Burton.Copyright Legends & Fairy Tales Art Literary History & Criticism World
