Explore the deep connections between Eastern and Western literary traditions with The Arabian Nights and Orientalism: Perspectives from East and West. Published by I. B. Tauris & Company, this volume was commissioned to mark the tercentenary of the first Western edition of The Arabian Nights.

The book provides a detailed look at how these stories traveled across borders and influenced different cultures. It is structured into three distinct sections to guide your reading.
