Le Liver Des Mille Nuits Et Une Nuit (4/13)
Translated to French by J.C. Mardrus
ISBN 4-00-327805-4 (Japanese translation)
The 4th book of "One Thousand and One Nights."
From the night 130 to the night 236.
One thing I felt reading books of the One Thousand and One Nights is that Islamic people seem to love verses very much. Assuming daily life of common people described there reflects real daily life of them, even a merchant chants verses when they feel emotion quite naturally.
I felt a bit surprised at first, but maybe it's because Islamic people are quite familiar with chanting verses because of their religious custom, chanting the Koran...
Here, it's just my theory and I'm not sure...
