Here is an article about the story: https://journals.openedition.org/crm/13772#text

It was written by Abraham Ibn Hisday in the 13th century, roughly based on the Christian legend of Barlaam and Josaphat.

  • It was translated into German and Yiddish but I don't think it was translated into English – wfb Aug 21 '20 at 03:16

An English summary of the book is given in Meyer Waxman's History of Jewish Literature, vol. 2 starting from p. 590.

The Hebrew version can be found here and the German translation here.

There's also a Catalan translation of the story, El príncep i el monjo with introduction and study by Tessa Calders i Artís (1987).
