Adopting a multi-disciplinary approach, this comparative study of a selection of "The Arabian Nights "stories in a cross-cultural context, brings together a number of disciplines and subject areas to examine the workings of narrative. It predominantly focuses on the ways in which the "Arabian Nights" have transformed as its stories have travelled across historical eras, cultures, genres and media. Departing from the familiar approaches of influence and textual studies, this book locates its central inquiry in the theoretical questions surrounding the workings of ideology, genre and genre ideology in shaping and transforming stories. The ten essays included in this volume respond to a general question, "what can the transformation of Nights stories in their travels tell us about narrative and storytelling, and their function in a particular culture?"
