Zusammenfassung:This book gathers together scholars to explore the reverberations of the tales of the Arabian Nights across a startlingly wide and transnational range of cultural endeavors. The contributors, drawn from a wide array of disciplines, extend their inquiries into the book's metamorphoses on stage and screen as well as in literature - from India to Japan, from Sanskrit mythology to British pantomime, from Baroque opera to puppet shows. Their original research illuminates little-known manifestations of the Nights, and provides unexpected contexts for understanding the stories.
