"Supplemental Nights to the Book of the Thousand and One Nights — Volume 3" by Richard Francis Burton is part of a translation series published between 1886-1888. This volume belongs to Burton's seven-volume supplement following his complete translation of the Arabian Nights. Burton's work became notorious for its unexpurgated content and extensive commentary on Oriental customs and sexuality. Published as a private subscribers-only edition to avoid Victorian obscenity laws, these volumes sparked
both admiration and controversy, including accusations of plagiarism and criticism of Burton's archaic style and obsessive annotations. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
