Les mille et une nuits - Tome premier
Résumé
"Les mille et une nuits - Tome premier" by Antoine Galland is a collection of classic Middle Eastern folktales, translated in the early 18th century. This enchanting collection is built around the tale of Scheherazade, who narrates a series of stories to delay her execution by the king who has sworn to kill her after one night. Through her clever storytelling, the book explores themes of fate, treachery, love, and the power of narrative itself. The opening portion introduces readers to the frame story of Scheherazade, who volunteers to marry Sultan Schahriar, a ruler tormented by betrayal. In her first night, she begins narrating a tale about a merchant who unwittingly kills the son of a vengeful genie, leading to the merchant's desperate attempts to avoid execution. As the story unfolds, it captivates both the Sultan and readers alike, setting the stage for a series of interwoven tales filled with intrigue, moral lessons, and suspense. The reader is drawn into a world of adventure and fantasy, leaving them eager to discover what happens next. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
