''One of Cleopatra's Nights and Other Fantastic Romances'' is a collection of fantasy short stories by Théophile Gautier, selected from his ''Nouvelles'' and ''Romans et Contes'' and translated from the French by Lafcadio Hearn. The translation was Hearn's first book, and is considered one of the best English translations of Gautier. It was first published in hardcover by Richard Worthington in 1882, and reprinted in 1886, 1888, 1890 and 1891; later reprint editions were issued by H. W. Hagemann (1894) and Brentano's in 1899, 1900, 1906, 1910, 1915, and 1927. The first British edition was published by MacLaren and Co. in 1907. The book was reprinted as a trade paperback by Wildside Press in 1999. Lin Carter intended to reissue the collection as a volume in the Ballantine Adult Fantasy series, though this hope was not realized. ==Contents== *"To the Reader" (Lafcadio Hearn) *"One of Cleopatra's Nights" (''Une nuit de Cléopâtre'', 1838) *"Clarimonde" (''La morte amoureuse'', 1836) *" Arria Marcella" (1852) *"The Mummy's Foot" (''Le Pied de momie'', 1840) *"Omphale: A Rococo Story" (''Omphale'', 1845) *"King Candaules" (''Le Roi Candaule'', 1844) *"Addenda" (Lafcadio Hearn) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「One of Cleopatra's Nights and Other Fantastic Romances」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
