About
"The Book of the Thousand Nights and a Night — Volume 09 (of 10)" by Richard Francis Burton is a translation published in 1888. This volume forms part of Burton's complete and unexpurgated English translation of the Arabian Nights, the legendary collection of Middle Eastern tales. Burton's controversial work includes extensive footnotes exploring Oriental culture and sexuality, details that made it unprintable under Victorian obscenity laws. Published as a private subscribers-only edition, this translation remains both celebrated for its scholarly ambition and criticized for its archaic style and obsessive commentary.
