Tales of Bluebeard and His Wives from Late Antiquity to Postmodern Times - Paperback

by Shuli Barzilai (Author)

This project provides an in-depth study of narratives about Bluebeard and his wives, or narratives with identifiable Bluebeard motifs, and the intertextual and extratextual personal, political, literary, and sociocultural factors that have made the tale a particularly fertile ground for an author's adaptation of the story.
