Naples. The Arabian Nights in Sicily [Elektronische Daten] [Francesca Maria Corrao] Little evidence is left of Arab rule in Sicily. Frederick II created a school of translation where the Oriental collection of fables, Kalila wa Dimna, was translated. Sicilian oral tradition has preserved stories inspired by the Thousand and One Nights. In the nineteenth century the folklorist Giuseppe Pitrè gathered stories from Sicilian oral tradition in which one recognises numerous motifs belonging to the Nights. In my contribution, I discuss Sicilian stories of Oriental origin in order to demonstrate analogies and differences. © Walter de Gruyter Literary studies: general nationallicence Literary theory nationallicence Novels, other prose & writers nationallicence Fabula Walter de Gruyter 45/3-4(2004-07-22), 237-245 0014-6242 45:3-4<237 2004 45 fabl https://doi.org/10.1515/fabl.2004.45.3-4.237 text/html Onlinezugriff via DOI 1 research article jats NATIONALLICENCE 856 40 https://doi.org/10.1515/fabl.2004.45.3-4.237 text/html Onlinezugriff via DOI NATIONALLICENCE 100 1- Corrao Francesca Maria 1.
