"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-book supplement following his controversial ten-volume translation of the Arabian Nights. Burton's work stands as the only complete English translation of the Calcutta edition, distinguished by its unexpurgated content, extensive footnotes on Oriental customs, and archaic language. Published privately to
avoid Victorian obscenity laws, these volumes sparked both admiration and criticism for their scholarly depth and sexual frankness. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
