Shahryar and the Thousand and One Hundred Nights of Stability

This book takes you beyond the magic of "One Thousand and One Nights" to reveal the historical, cultural, and psychological dimensions that created one of humanity‘s greatest immortal tales. The author does not limit himself to recounting two stories as examples of those enchanting nights, but rather immerses you in the origins and development of these tales over the ages, and how they moved from the popular imagination to the heart of Arabic literature, then deeply influenced world and ancient literature. Through the character of Shahryar and his psychological complex that created the tragedy of the women of his city, to the ingenuity of Scheherazade, who transformed the story into a means of salvation and reform, the book presents us with a new understanding of literature as a mirror of the nation‘s spirit and the voice of its civilization. It is a work that goes beyond the confines of stories to become a literary and historical study that restores the reader‘s awareness of the value of imagination in shaping the identity of peoples.
