The Thousand and One Nights, Vol. I.: Commonly Called the Arabian Nights' Entertainments — Page 15
This is a point which I deem of much importance to set the work in its proper light before my countrymen.
이것은 내가 내 동포들에게 이 작품을 올바른 시각으로 제시하기 위해 매우 중요하다고 여기는 점이다.
I have resided in a land where genii are still firmly believed to obey the summons of the magician or the owner of a talisman, and to act in occurrences of every day;
나는 정령들이 여전히 마법사나 부적의 소유자의 소환에 복종하고 일상적인 사건들에 관여한다고 굳게 믿어지는 땅에서 거주한 적이 있다.
and I have listened to stories of their deeds related as facts by persons of the highest respectability, and by some who would not condescend to read the tales of 'The Thousand and One Nights,' merely because they are fictions, and not written in the usual polished style of literary compositions."
그리고 나는 가장 존경받는 사람들에 의해, 그리고 단순히 허구라는 이유로, 또한 일반적인 세련된 문학적 문체로 쓰여지지 않았다는 이유로 『천일야화』를 읽으려 하지 않는 사람들에 의해 사실로서 전해지는 그들의 행적에 관한 이야기들을 들었다.
I have already mentioned that the literary history of "The Thousand and One Nights" is discussed in Mr. Lane's Review appended to this translation.
나는 이미 『천일야화』의 문학적 역사가 이 번역에 첨부된 레인 씨의 논평에서 논의되고 있다고 언급한 바 있다.
In the course of my Arabic studies, and more especially since I have been occupied in editing the present work, I have endeavoured to form an unbiassed judgment on this difficult question;
나의 아랍어 연구 과정에서, 그리고 특히 현재 이 작품을 편집하는 데 몰두한 이후로, 나는 이 어려운 문제에 대해 편견 없는 판단을 내리려고 노력해 왔다.
and all my researches have confirmed me in agreeing with the opinions there expressed.
그리고 나의 모든 연구는 그곳에서 표명된 의견들에 동의하는 나의 입장을 확인시켜 주었다.
Von Hammer was inclined to lay too much stress on the supposed Persian or Indian origin of these Tales;
폰 함머는 이 이야기들의 추정되는 페르시아 또는 인도적 기원에 지나치게 중점을 두는 경향이 있었다.
while De Sacy, on the other hand, rejected the belief in any connection between the old work and the more modern; contending that the latter was an independent production.
반면에 드 사시는 오래된 작품과 더 현대적인 작품 사이의 어떠한 연관성에 대한 믿음도 거부하며, 후자는 독립적인 작품이라고 주장하였다.
The discovery, however, of a passage in an Arabic author, by Von Hammer, since the publication of De Sacy's Essay and Mr.
그러나 드 사시의 논문과 레인 씨의 출판 이후, 폰 함머에 의한 아랍 작가의 한 구절의 발견은
