De vertellingen van duizend-en-een nacht; Deel 1 - 3

The framing device of Scheherazade's nightly stories creates a sense of suspense. I wonder how much this structure impacts the way readers engage with the individual stories.

Many tales carry morals and customs that seem quite different from modern perspectives. I'm curious how readers interpret these cultural differences.

Given Burton's extensive work and notes, I wonder what criteria were used to choose these particular tales for this collection.
