La novia del mar y otros cuentos de las tribus árabes
Reseña del editor: Este libro contiene 60 cuentos seleccionados de los tres libros de C.G. Campbell: Tales from the Arab Tribes (cuentos del Bajo Eúfrates), From Town and Tribe (cuentos del sur de Irak, de Muscat, Omán y Beluchistán) y Told in the Market Place (cuentos de Palestina, Libia, Omán e Irak). Las reseñas que acompañaron la aparición de los tres libros destacan el parentesco con las Mil y una noches. Por ello hemos querido ilustrar estos cuentos con los grabados que iluminaron las primeras ediciones de esta obra, cuyo éxito tuvo mucho que ver con la corriente de exaltación de la cultura árabe, tan ligada al culto por lo exótico y el lujo de los románticos europeos. Este libro es una obra necesaria, como todas las recopilaciones que contribuyen a conservar la memoria de los pueblos y su enorme e importante patrimonio oral, que nos ayudará a no olvidar, además de la literatura oral de las tribus árabes, la magnífica labor del propio autor, apenas conocida fuera de Gran Bretaña pero merecedora de mayor difusión.
