《一千零一夜》是阿拉伯文学中一部重要的民间故事集,而中国在其中却是一个被经常提到的国度。但是通过仔细阅读我们会发现,故事中很多对中国的描写存在着严重的误读,中国在他们眼中就是一个阿拉伯世界的国家。然而通过对这种误读的探索我们却可以很好的了解到在中古阿拉伯时期,伊斯兰人民的社会状况和民族精神。发现他们对扩张的热衷,对伊斯兰教的绝对信仰以及对金钱,知识与智慧的执着追求。这些对于我们今天进一步理解阿拉伯文化也是有着重要的积极意义的。
“Arabian Nights” is an important set of folk tales in Arabic literature, but China is among the most frequently mentioned. However, if we read carefully, we will find that there are many serious misunderstandings about the description of China in the story. China is in their eyes an Arab world. However, through the exploration of such misreading, we can well understand the social conditions and national spirit of the Islamic people during the Middle Ages. Discover their passion for expansion, their absolute faith in Islam and their persistent pursuit of money, knowledge and wisdom. These are also of positive significance to our further understanding of Arab culture today.
