hardcover. Condition: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.…

Hardback. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. Quartet Books, London and elsewhere, 1979, first edition; 8vo, pp [x], 278; 25 illustrations, some as individual plates and others on the one plate; dull red cloth boards, pictorial dust wrapper, very good copy. Mediaeval European culture was Greek, Latin and arabic but the Arabic thread, as with comparable influence in mathematics and medicine, has largely been overlooked, its not being recognised that the form and content of literature largely assumed to be exclusively western owe a significant debt to this Arab heritage. The book traces the spread of this culture from the east, using a rich collection of biblical and other stories, including erotic material such as those of Joseph and Potiphar's wife, Solomon and the Queen of Sheba, Alexander the Great, and more, and draws on the great seminal tale collections such as Disciplina Clericalis and The Arabian Nights.…
