Les Mille et Une Nuits

Rate this book
O sultão Schahriar descobre que sua esposa tem um amante. Acreditando que todas as mulheres são infiéis, ele decide se casar com uma nova jovem a cada noite e executá-la na manhã seguinte. A barbárie só tem fim quando Sherazade se oferece para o matrimônio. A cada noite ela conta uma história ao soberano, tomando o cuidado de parar em um momento de suspense. Curioso em ouvir o desenrolar da trama, o rei adia a sentença de morte noite após noite. Foi assim que surgiram as famosas viagens de Simbá, os desafios de Aladim e o plano mirabolante de Ali Babá, entre muitos outros enredos. O mundo ocidental passou a conhecer essas lendas pela tradução de Antoine Galland, escritor francês especializado em manuscritos antigos e responsável pela primeira versão europeia das fascinantes aventuras.

• O Burro, o Boi e o Lavrador

Okay, I know I read this book for French class, but it was so good that I had to write a review! I loved all the stories and the fact that Scheherazade was a smart and empowered female. My favorite story was "L'histoire de Sidi Nouman", about a vicious wife and turning into a dog. Would highly recommend to anyone interested in a fantastic read filled with the exotic nature of the East.

Moi qui n'avais toujours pas eu l'occasion de découvrir autre qu'avec quelques extraits ou en entendant parler.

Quoiqu'il en soit j'ai adoré découvrir cette histoire et la version originale. C'était une lecture très intéressante et intrigante et j'étais toute aussi curieuse que le roi d'en découvrir toujours plus sur ces histoires.

J'ai pu découvrir ou re-découvrir ces contes orientaux, plus sombres et plus cruels que ce que l'on pouvait nous raconter étant enfants. Des messages intéressants sont passés à travers cette œuvre, bien que certains passages ne soient vraiment plus d'actualité, la condition et le traitement de la femme par exemple... Un très joli livre, travaillé et agrémenté de belles illustrations !

Nous connaissons tous quelques histoires qui proviennent de ce récit, mais je ne savais pas pourquoi les mille et une nuits. Maintenant, je sais! Et quel délice! Ce livre audio ne contient que quelques-unes des 1001 histoires racontées et j’en aurais volontiers écouté encore plusieurs! Envoûtant!

Disons qu'il faut les avoir lues...mais que je ne suis pas persuadée que je les relirai dans la prochaine décennie non plus 😅

Les caractères fantastique et oriental n'ont malheureusement pas été suffisants pour que je ferme les yeux sur autant de sexisme, racisme et violence.

Bonnes histoires mais sexiste, raciste, violent, et mysogyne.
