Enter The Richard Burton Library, wherein the curious listener may accompany that restless company of pilgrims, wanderers, merchants, poets, princes, and philosophers who people the books of Sir Richard Francis Burton. Here are his works read in full: voyages into Arabia, Africa, India, and the chambers of ancient story; observations of men and manners; translations from tongues remote and richly storied; and those strange byways of learning which Burton pursued with equal parts courage, appetite, and disdain for convention. For the lover of travel, letters, and the wider world, the road begins here.Public domain 旅行記・解説 社会科学

    In which the prudent discourse chiefly concerns the virtuous reign and austere humility of Omar bin Abd al-Azíz, illustrating a noble contrast to prior rulers who diverted public wealth, thereby reflecting upon the nature of piety and justice in governance. Amidst advisements and reflections exchanged upon the transient state of earthly power, a thoughtful admonition is delivered to those in high office to govern with righteousness and fear of God, lest they forsake their eternal reckoning.
