Richard Franics Burton (1821-1890). Sohn eines britischen Offiziers aus Torquay, Devonshire. Burtons Abenteuerlust macht sich früh bemerkbar. Er ist begeisterter Falkner, Spieler und Duellant; 1842 wird er wegen Pferdewetten aus dem Trinity College in Oxford ausgeschlossen. Kurz darauf tritt er der Ostindienkompanie bei und vertieft sein Sprachstudium. Der Herausgeber: Dr. Uwe Pfullmann (geb.1956) studierte Arabistik und arabische Geschichte in Leipzig und promovierte zur Geschichte Nordafrikas. Der Faszination Arabiens kann er sich nicht entziehen – er unternahm, zahlreiche Reisen in die arabische Region und veröffentlichte Fachbücher und Forschungsbeiträge.
