"The Book of the Thousand Nights and a Night — Volume 07 (of 10)" by Richard Francis Burton is a translation published in 1888. This volume forms part of Burton's complete and unexpurgated English translation of the Arabian Nights, a legendary collection of Middle Eastern and South Asian folk tales. Burton's work became notorious for its frank treatment of sexual content and its extensive scholarly notes exploring Oriental customs. Published privately to circumvent Victorian obscenity laws, this translation remains celebrated for its ambition yet criticized for its archaic language and the translator's eccentric personal obsessions.
