Komediia Tysiachi i odnoi nochi - Morozov D.

This book is the first in Russian literature to follow the interesting history of publications and translations "Books of A Thousand and One Nights" in the East, Europe and Russia. The entire three-hundred-year history of this monument in Europe is an almost continuous band of hoaxes, misunderstandings and curiosities, perfectly conveying the spirit of its time. The book can be of interest to a wide range of specialists in different fields of humanities science, as well as to all those interested in the East, the science of the East and Western European and Russian culture of the 18th and 20th centuries.
