Résumé

Once lived a powerful and rich man called Blue Beard. Can you guess why? Well of course because of his beard that was strangely blue. The man himself was also a bit strange, even frightening. He married several times but each time his wife disappeared into thin air. He decided to remarry again and he chose one of his neighbor’s daughters. Some time passed by and the rich man was about to leave the country. He left his wife a magical key which opened every door in the castle but one. The girl was not allowed to try to enter it. However her curiosity prevailed and she opened the door. What did she see there and will her husband find out that she disobeyed? "Blue Beard" holds the answers.Charles Perrault (1628-1703) was a French author. He is known for being a pioneer of the fairy tale genre, deriving his stories from traditional folk tales. His most famous stories include "Puss in Boots", "Little Red Riding Hood", "Sleeping Beauty", and "Cinderella". His stories have been adapted to stage and screen countless times, most notably by Disney with classic animated films like "Sleeping Beauty" and "Cinderella". His story "Puss in Boots" was the basis for the character from the animated films "Shrek 2" and "Puss in Boots".

Auteur

Charles Perrault (auteur)

Né en 1628, Charles Perrault a fait des études littéraires brillantes au collège de Beauvais à Paris. Il obtient une licence en droit et s'inscrit alors au barreau en 1651. Il devient ensuite contrôleur général des bâtiments du roi, ainsi que membre de la Commission des inscriptions publiques. C’est en 1671 qu’il est élu à l'Académie française. Mais cet écrivain et conteur célèbre est principalement connu pour avoir contribué à relancer le genre littéraire des contes de fées avec ses fameux Contes de ma mère l'Oye ou Histoires et Contes du Temps Passé (1697), ainsi qu’un recueil de huit contes merveilleux appartenant à une littérature orale. Il a réécrit l’histoire du Petit Chaperon Rouge, de Cendrillon dans des versions beaucoup moins terribles que celles des légendes d’antan, transformant le récit et l'adaptant à la société de son temps.
