passage: Translations of One Thousand and One Nights
Another translation attempt was made by John Payne ("The Book of the Thousand Nights and One Night", 1882–84). He, however, printed just 500 copies for private circulation and ceded the work to Richard Francis Burton. Burton's translation ("The Book of the Thousand Nights and a Night", 1885–88) enjoyed a huge public success, but at the same time was criticized for its reportedly archaic language and excessive erotic details. As of 2004, Burton's translation remains the most complete version of "One Thousand and One Nights" in English. It is also generally considered as one of the finest unexpurgated translations from Calcutta II. It stood as the only complete translation of the Macnaghten or Calcutta II edition (Egyptian recension) until the Malcolm C. and Ursula Lyons translation in 2008.
