《天方夜谭》是带你乘坐魔毯前往充满奇观与奇迹的异域之地的旅程。这些民间故事最早于近一千年前被收集，以狡黠的 Scheherazade 连续一千零一个夜晚向丈夫 Shahryar 国王讲述故事的形式呈现，以此激起他对次夜消遣的兴趣，从而保全自己的性命。其中包括东方叙事中最著名的一些传说，如《辛巴达航海记》《阿拉丁与神灯》和《阿里巴巴与四十大盗》。本集收录二十多个故事，采用经典

……对非穆斯林来说，进入圣城是死罪。他在其他危险的地方也这么干，冒的也是类似的险。Burton 还写过一版著名的《Thousand and One Nights》（又名《Arabian Nights》）译本[2]，翻译过《Kama Sutra》和其他作品。[1] - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Francis_Burton [2] - Burton 的译本是我最喜欢的《Thousand and One Nights》版本，没有之一。你可以读……
…for non-mulsims entering the holy cities was death. He did the same in other dangerous places as well, taking similar risks. Burton also wrote a famous translation of the Thousand and One Nights (aka Arabian Nights)[2], translated the Kama Sutra and other works. [1] - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Francis_Burton [2] - Burton's is by far my favorite translation of the Thousand and One Nights. You can read…
《Exhalation》里的第一篇故事是仿《Arabian Nights》（《Thousand and One Nights》）的风格写的。去找 Richard Burton 那个未删节的原始译本——那是有史以来最优美的文学作品之一——一共 16 卷，绝对不愁没得读……
The first story in Exhalation is written in the style of the Arabian Nights (Thousand and One Nights). Get the unabridged, original translation by Richard Burton - it is some of the most beautiful literature ever written - comes in 16 volumes so there will be no shortage of reading…
比如，看看著名探险家兼译者 Sir Richard Burton 惹上的麻烦。他翻译的《Kama Sutra》和《1001 Arabian Nights》在维多利亚时代的英国被认为伤风败俗。他是个无所畏惧的探险家，足迹遍布各地，会说 29 种语言。他著述颇丰，但遗憾的是，他遗孀觉得他有些手稿太过露骨……
See, for example, the troubles the noted explorer and translator Sir Richard Burton had. His translations of the Kama Sutra and 1001 Arabian Nights were considered scandalous in Victorian England. He was an undaunted explorer and traveled widely and spoke 29 languages. He wrote extensively, but sadly his widow considered some of his papers too explicit…
这个网站太棒了！谢谢！喜欢 Andrew Lang 那套彩虹色童话书的人注意了，Lang 还出过一卷《The Arabian Nights》，不是翻译，而是对部分故事的复述。我小时候就接触过 Richard Burton 那套厚厚的三卷本。有意思的是，当时居然没人想着管管我读什么书……
This site is amazing! Thank you! For those who loved the Andrew Lang rainbow-color fairy tale books, Lang also published a volume of The Arabian Nights, not a translation but a recounting of selected tales. I encountered the Richard Burton commodious 3-volume set as a child. It's amazing that nobody at the time thought to proctor my reading choice,…
……一个靠非凡的掌控力，另一个靠反讽。Paganini 是第一位伟大的 Virtuoso，几十年来既是反面典型也是理想化身。其他例子还有 Richard Burton，这位 Virtuoso 式的旅行家、《Arabian Nights》的译者，以及那位 Virtuoso 登山家，他完成超凡脱俗的壮举“因为山就在那里”。Dandy 呢：不是靠过度，而是靠反讽来改变这个角色。最高地位的角色是……
…fantastic mastery, the other by irony. Paganini was the first great Virtuoso and for decades the anti-role model and ideal. Other examples are Richard Burton the Virtuoso traveler and translator of the Arabian Nights, and the Virtuoso mountain climber who performs sublime feats of superhuman effort “because it was there.” The Dandy: transforms the role not by excess but by irony. The role of the highest status in…
