Omschrijving

The Life of Edward William Lane is a biographical book written by Stanley Lane-Poole about the famous British Orientalist, Edward William Lane. Lane was a scholar and translator who spent much of his life studying Arabic language and culture in Egypt. He is best known for his translation of One Thousand and One Nights, which is still widely read today. The book provides a detailed account of Lane's life, including his upbringing in England, his travels to Egypt and other parts of the Middle East, and his work as a scholar and translator. Lane-Poole draws on Lane's own writings, as well as letters and other historical documents, to paint a vivid portrait of this fascinating figure. Throughout the book, Lane's passion for Arabic language and culture is evident, as is his deep respect for the people he encountered during his travels. Lane-Poole also explores Lane's personal life, including his relationships with family and friends, as well as his struggles with illness and depression. Overall, The Life of Edward William Lane is a comprehensive and engaging biography that offers a fascinating glimpse into the life and work of one of the most important Orientalists of the 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
