內(nèi)容概要

《一千零一夜》，也叫《天方夜譚》，是阿拉伯文字中的瑰寶。傳說阿拉伯古代有一個國王，每天娶一個女子，第二天早上就把她殺了。有一個姑娘要阻止他這種殘忍的做法，自愿做他的一夜王后。進入王宮后，她就開始給國王講故事，講到緊要關(guān)頭，行刑時間到了，國王正聽得津津有味，就說：過一天再殺吧?？墒枪适乱粋€接一個講下去，每次要殺她時故事都到了“欲知后事如何，且聽下回分解”的節(jié)骨眼上，國王為了聽故事，只好一天天延遲殺她的時間。就這樣，故事一直講了一千零一夜，國王終于改掉了他的可怕做法，她從此成為長久的王后。這就是“一千零一夜“的來由。她講的故事能如此吸引那位國王，當(dāng)然是非常動聽的。確實，像《阿里巴巴和四十大盜》、《神燈》、《辛巴德航海歷險記》這些故事早已傳遍全世界。     《一千零一夜》是世界文學(xué)的瑰寶，它以絢麗多彩、曲折奇妙的故事，任意馳騁的想象和對人類美好理想執(zhí)著的追求，吸引著一代又一代的億萬讀者。它的藝術(shù)魅力歷久不衰，它對世界文化，特別是歐洲文化產(chǎn)生過巨大的影響。

章節(jié)摘錄

NIGHT 3The next morning Dinarzade made the same request to her sister as before: "My dear sister," said she, "if you be not asleep, tell me one of those pleasant stories that you have read." But the sultan, wishing to learn what followed betwixt the merchant and the genie, bade her proceed with that, which she did as follows.Sir, while the merchant and the old man who led the hind were conversing, they saw another old man coming towards them, followed by two black dogs; after they had saluted one another, he asked them what they did in that place？ The old man with the hind told him the adventure of the merchant and genie, with all that had passed between them, particularly the merchant's oath. He added, that it was the day agreed on, and that he was resolved to stay and see the issue.   The second old man thinking it also worth his curiosity, resolved to do the same, and took his seat by them. They had scarcely begun to converse together, when there arrived a third old man leading a mule. He addressed himself to the two former, and asked why the merchant who sat with them looked so melancholy？ They told him the reason, which appeared to him so extraordinary, that he also resolved to witness the result; and for that purpose sat down with them.In a short time they perceived a thick vapour, like a cloud of dust raised by a whirlwind, advancing towards them. When it had come up to them it suddenly vanished, and the genie appeared; who, without saluting them, went to the merchant with a drawn cimeter, and taking him by the arm, said, "Get thee up, that I may kill thee, as thou didst my son." The merchant and the three old men began to lament and fill the air with their cries. Here Scheherazade, perceiving day, discontinued her story, which so much interested the sultan's curiosity, that he resolved to hear the remainder, and put off the sultaness's execution for another day.The grand vizier's joy was extreme, when he found that the sultan did not order him to put Scheherazade to death; his family, the court, and the people in general, were astonished at the sultan's forbearance.
