Book excerpt: Embedded within the enchanting tapestry of Middle Eastern narrative, 'The Tale of Attaf' transcends its roots from the illustrious One Thousand and One Nights. This narrative, brimming with the cultural and intellectual opulence of the Islamic Golden Age, uses Harun al-Rashid—a historical Abbasid caliph renowned for his patronage of the arts and sciences—as its central figure. The story unfolds through a blend of emotional shifts ranging from mirth to sorrow, epitomized by al-Rashid's laughter and tears. With its intricate plot and descriptive insight into the era's societal dynamics, the tale's stylistic nuances resonate with the ornate prose and allegorical depth characteristic of its broader literary context. As Ja'afar's journey intertwines with Attaf's destiny and their ensuing escapades, the reader is plunged into a vividly portrayed world of love, loyalty, and the undulating fortunes of its characters. The authorship of 'The Tale of Attaf', attributed to the mysterious collective identity of Anonymous, is as enigmatic as the peripatetic odyssey of its characters. The very anonymity of authorship allows the text to express a universal voice, reflective of the rich oral traditions from which these stories emerged. The themes and intrigues presented may stem from a profound understanding of human psychology and societal norms of the epoch—an understanding likely shaped by the diverse influences and vast wisdom encapsulated within the region's scholarly and cultural milieu. This anonymous craftsmanship enables the tale to be a vessel of timeless insights and an exploration of the myriad facets of human experience. Recommended for both aficionados of classical literature and newcomers alike, 'The Tale of Attaf' offers an exquisite glimpse into the intellectual and emotional landscape of the Islamic Golden Age. The narrative invites diligent readers to engage with a piece of literary heritage that transcends time and geography. An essential read for those who revel in the splendor of storied civilizations, the tale promises to enthrall, educate, and echo in one's contemplation long after the final page is turned.

Book excerpt: Notorious for the delight he took in tweaking the sexual taboos of the Victorian age-as well as the delight he took in the resulting shock of his bashful peers-British adventurer, linguist, and author CAPTAIN SIR RICHARD FRANCIS BURTON (1821-1890) is perhaps best remembered for his unexpurgated translation of the Eastern classic The One Thousand and One Nights, more famously known today as The Arabian Nights. Originating in Persian, Indian, and Arabic sources as far back as the ninth century AD, this collection of bawdy tales-which Burton was the first to bring to English readers in uncensored form-has exerted incalculable influence on modern literature. It represents one of the earliest examples of a framing story, as young Shahrazad, under threat of execution by the King, postpones her death by regaling him with these wildly entertaining stories over the course of 1,001 nights. The stories themselves feature early instances of sexual humor, satire and parody, murder mystery, horror, and even science fiction. Burton's annotated 16-volume collection, as infamous as it is important, was first published between 1885 and 1888, and remains an entertainingly naughty read. Volume XVI-the sixth and final volume of Burton's Supplemental Nights-includes: [ "The History of Al-Bundukani or, the Caliph Harun Al-Rashid and the Daughter of King Kisra" [ "The Linguist-Dame, The Duenna and the King's Son" [ "The Tale of the Warlock and the Young Cook of Baghdad" [ "The Pleasant History of the Cock and the Fox" [ appendices, notes, and indexes [ and more.
