The Book of the Thousand Nights and a Night — Volume 02 (of 10)
关于本书
理查德·弗朗西斯·伯顿所著的《一千零一夜——第二卷（共十卷）》是于1888年出版的译本。伯顿这套共十卷的著作首次提供了完整且未经删节的阿拉伯神话故事的英文译本。这一颇具争议的版本包含了大量关于东方文化与性行为的注释，但由于这些内容违反了维多利亚时代的审查法规，因此是通过私人渠道印刷发行的。伯顿使用古朴的语言以及大胆的翻译手法，既赢得了人们的赞赏，也引发了诸多批评，其中还包括同为翻译家的约翰·佩恩对其抄袭他人作品的指控。尽管如此，这一译本仍因其严谨的学术态度以及对原文中成人内容的直率处理而备受瞩目。
