The Arabs during a thousand years or more produced one of the
richest and most extensive literatures of the world, embracing fine
poetry (of the fierce desert life equally with the sophistication of
royal courts), belles lettres (learned essays, satires, de arte amoris),
religious, mystical and philosophical writings, and huge compendia of
history, biography and geography. For sixty years, the best account in
English of this vast output has been, by universal consent, R. A.
Nicholson's Literary History of the Arabs; its supremacy will long
remain unchallenged. That it is a book full of erudition and high
critical judgement goes without saying; its author is also a
poet-translator of rare excellence.
