概要

 Sir Richard Francis Burton (1821 – 1890) was a remarkable English explorer, translator, and writer renowned for his daring adventures and deep understanding of diverse cultures. His linguistic prowess was extraordinary, as he was said to speak 29 languages spanning Europe, Asia, and Africa. Burtons most notable feats include disguising himself to travel to Mecca, producing an unexpurgated translation of The Book of One Thousand Nights and A Night, and introducing the Kama Sutra to the English-speaking world. He also embarked on a groundbreaking expedition with John Hanning Speke, guided by Africas greatest explorer, Sidi Mubarak Bombay, where they sought the source of the Nile. Despite his critical stance on colonial policies, which hindered his career, Burtons extensive writings—filled with insightful observations, footnotes, and appendices—explore a wide array of subjects, from human behavior and travel to sexual practices and ethnography.
