批評家のレビュー
“One feels like getting lost in...[The Arabian Nights], one knows that entering that book one can forget one’s own poor human fate; one can enter a world, a world made up of of archetypal figures but also of individuals.”
(Jorge Luis Borges)“The Arabian Nights is more generally loved than Shakespeare…No human face or voice greets us among [this] crowd of kings and genies, sorcerers and beggarmen. Adventure, on the most naked terms, furnishes forth the entertainment and is found enough.”
(Robert Louis Stevenson)“The essential quality of these tales lies in their success in interweaving the unusual, the extraordinary, the marvelous, and the supernatural into the fabric of everyday life.”
(Husain Haddawy)“The tales themselves are masterpieces of the art of storytelling. In inventiveness and sheer entertainment value they stand supreme amoung the short stories of all time...despite the fabulous and fantastic world they portray, with its emphasis on the marvellous and the supernatural, they are a faithful mirror of the life and manners of the age which engendered them.”
(N. J. Dawood)
