Alle Wohlgerüche Arabiens (W3)

"Alle Wohlgerüche Arabiens" entstammen zwar nicht der Arabischen Literatur, aber sie beziehen sich auf Arabien und entstammen der Literatur.

"Weihrauch", Myrrhen, Kasia, Kinamomon, Ledanon oder Jasmin sind nur einige der Düfte aus Arabien, die in Europa schon lange Verwendung finden.

Zum geflügelten Wort wurde es durch den Ausspruch von Lady Macbeth in Shakespeares "Macbeth" (Act V, Scene 1). Aufgrund schrecklicher Mordtaten langsam dem Wahnsinn verfallend, glaubt sie, dass sie das Blut an ihren Händen nicht mehr abwaschen kann. Lady Macbeth bemerkt: "... All the perfumes of Arabia will not sweeten this little hand." bzw. "Alle Wohlgerüche Arabiens könnten diese kleine Hand nicht wohlriechend machen."

Heute wird dieser Ausspruch z.B. ironisch auf Personen angewandt, die sich für unseren Geschmack zu stark parfümiert haben.

Erzählungen aus 1001 Nacht

Die arabischen Erzählungen aus Tausendundeiner Nacht, die Stoffe aus dem Vorderen Orient enthalten, entstanden in der Zeit vom 8. bis zum 16. Jahrhundert. Der abwechslungsreiche Aufbau umfasst Märchen und Romane mit eingestreuten Fabeln, Sagen, Anekdoten und Gedichten. In der Rahmenhandlung werden die Geschichten drei Jahre lang von Scheherezade, der Tochter des Wesirs, erzählt. Mit ihren fesselnden Darstellungen von »Sindbad, der Seefahrer«, »Aladin und die Wunderlampe«, »Ali Baba und die 40 Räuber« besänftigt sie Nacht für Nacht die Wut des Königs, der ihr nach dem Leben trachtet. Es sind aber nicht nur diese berühmten, zahlreich verfilmten Erzählungen, deren Reiz sich der Leser auch heute nicht verschließen kann. Die elektronische Ausgabe enthält - gleich dem »Sesam, öffne dich!« - den Schatz der Erzählungen aus allen 1001 Nächten, die einen faszinierender Einblick in Geschichte, Kultur und Religion des Orients geben.
