The Sinbad tales are included in the first European translation of the Nights, Antoine Galland's Les Mille et une nuits, contes arabes traduits en français, an English edition of which appeared in 1711 as The new Arabian winter nights entertainments and went through numerous editions throughout the 18th century. The Sinbad cycle is set in the reign of the Abbasid Caliph Harun al-Rashid (786–809). Later sources include Abbasid works such as the "Wonders of the Created World", reflecting the experiences of 13th century Arab mariners who braved the Indian Ocean. The Sinbad stories take on a variety of different themes. This process of growth is reflected in the Sinbad tales. Arab and Muslim traders would seek new trading routes and people to trade with. The Abbasid reign was known as a period of great economic and social growth. The stories display the folk and themes present in works of that time.
The tale reflects the trend within the Abbasid realm of Arab and Muslim sailors exploring the world. The tales of Sinbad are a relatively late addition to the One Thousand and One Nights – they do not feature in the earliest 14th-century manuscript, and they appear as an independent cycle in 17th- and 18th-century collections. 3.2.2 Foreign Language series and films.3.2.1 English Language series and films.3.1.5 Live-action foreign Language films.3.1.4 Live-Action English Language Direct-To-Video films.3.1.3 Live-Action English Language Theatrical films.2.8 Seventh and Last Voyage of Sinbad the Sailor.2.1 Sinbad the Porter and Sinbad the Sailor.
