Beschreibung
A delightful addition to the Collector's Editions, introducing tales from ancient and medieval Arabic literature.

'The Merchant and the Genie’, ‘The Fisherman and the Genie’, ‘The Porter and the Three Ladies’, ‘The Three Apples’... The folk and fairy tales of Western Asia find their origins in Arabic and Indian oral storytelling, and the medieval literature of the Arab world. The stories have found their way into everyday culture of the modern era, with new versions and interpretations breathing new life into classic themes. The Book of the Seven Vizirs, The Tale of the Four Dervishes, the famous stories of Sinbad, and the tales of Scheherazade are brought together here as a magical thread of love and adventure, invoking the mysteries of the night and the mirages of the desert. With a new introduction.

Flame Tree Collector's Editions present the foundations of speculative fiction: authors, myths, tales and history without which the imaginative literature of the twentieth century would not exist, bringing the best, most influential and most fascinating works into a striking and collectable library. Each book features a new Introduction and a Glossary of Terms or lists of Ancient Leaders.

Über den Autor
Dr. Orhan Elmaz (Introduction) teaches Digital Humanities and classical and modern Arabic language, literature and culture at the University of St Andrews. His research area lies at the intersection of linguistics, intellectual history, and transcultural studies. He has published on the Qur’an (and its use and abuse), computational and corpus linguistics, and One Thousand and One Nights. Currently, he is working on the emergence and development of feminist ideas, specifically female education, contrasting different Muslim-majority and Muslim-minority communities of the Middle East, Europe and Central Asia in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.

J.K. Jackson (General Editor) has written, edited and contributed to over 20 books on mythology and folklore. Related works include studies of Babylonian creation myths, the philosophy of time and William Blake's use of mythology in his visionary literature.
