The Arabian Nights is a collection of
Perso-Arabic folk tales and other stories. The collection, or at least
certain stories drawn from it (or purporting to be drawn from it),
became widely known in the West from the 18th century, after it was
translated from the Arabic — first into French and then into English and
other European languages. The first English language edition, based on
Galland's French rather than the original Arabic, rendered the title as
The Arabian Nights' Entertainment - and this, or simply The Arabian
Nights, has been the title by which it has been best known to
English-speaking people ever since. (Summary from Wikipedia)
