	Bluebeard - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Bluebeard is the title character in a famous fairy tale about a violent nobleman and his all too curious wife.
		Although Bluebeard was a wealthy aristocrat and a man of considerable importance in society, he was feared among the people for his wild blue beard and his menacing behaviour.
		No sooner than they were married however, Bluebeard announced he would leave the country on business for six weeks, and when the day of his departure had come, he entrusted to his wife the keys to all the rooms in the chateau, including one small chamber that she was forbidden to enter.

		In some cases, the "Bluebeard‑ness of the intertextual work is beyond question: the intertextuality is manifest because Bluebeard is named, or an aspect of the tale is overtly alluded to.
		Bluebeard's ability to "haunt" texts is shown in both works to be effected through the medium of intertextual presupposition.
		The regressus in Bluebeard's plot takes the form of a tableau of corpses that are at once a projection of Bluebeard's vision of the reader and an uncanny reflection of the witness encoded in it.

		Kurt Vonnegut's Bluebeard was written in 1988 and describes the late years of fictional Abstract Expressionist painter Rabo Karabekian, who first appeared, rather briefly, in Breakfast of Champions.
		It takes the arrival of a young woman, Circe Berman, author of the "Polly Madison" books for teenagers, to make Karabekian reveal his life story.
		This story begins with his family's exodus from Armenia, their arrival in California, his youth in New York City, and eventually to his place in the art world and his final retirement.

		The book is fascinating on several particular and universal themes and I'm impressed by her clear, clear style.
		This book will never be a New York Times best seller - the public would rather believe that Harding Myths inseatd of the facts - but for those who care to learn more about the truths of the 29th President and his most remarkable wife, this is a satisfying and accurate book to read.
		This book takes you through one of the scariest challenges of a woman's life....watch how the main character deals with the hand that life has dealt her...you will be inspired...and humbled.

	[No title]
		As a contrast to the asceticism and celibacy of Parsifal we have in Bluebeard rampant and tropical polygamy; fervent, untiring connubialism.
		Bluebeard has six sackbuts, a trumpet, a _viol_d'amore_, and a Chinese temple gong; Fatima, three lutes, an arch-lute, and a pianola; Mustapha a bass-drum and a harpsichord; and Sister Anne a pair of virginals.
		The libretto is full of barbaric brutalities; it is replete with blood and carnage; but, although Bluebeard was emphatically not a nice person, and his vices cannot be condoned, and although Fatima was wrong in marrying for an establishment and most culpable in yielding to her curiosity, still, virtue triumphs in the end.

	Bluebeard - Hutchinson encyclopedia article about Bluebeard
		Folk-tale character, popularized by the writer Charles Perrault in France about 1697, and historically identified with Gilles de Rais, a 15th-century French nobleman executed for murdering children.
		Bluebeard murdered six wives for disobeying his command not to enter a locked room, but was himself killed before he could murder the seventh.
		If Red-Eye was a Bluebeard, Lop-Ear was hen-pecked; and I imagine that Red-Eye was too shrewd ever to covet Lop-Ear's wife.

		I devoured this book and found myself satisified, even the long anticipated secret of what lies in the potato barn was well worth the suspense (and it really is), this is the most fun I've had with a Vonnegut book in long time.
		Bluebeard has a good story but makes liberal use of the common Vonnegut time lapse (with the main charcter's story shifting between his past and present as he writes his memoirs).
		Bluebeard was actually the first book of his I read and I think it is by far and away Vonnegut's best book and it is my personal favorite as well.

		"Bluebeard" is one of Vonnegut's many novels that attempts to tie the atrocities of WWII, the simple beauty of modern art, (The central character played a brief role in "Breakfast of Champions" as the artist who paints a blue dot on a canvas) and the cruelness of people.
		The book changes quickly from the the past to the present, but it is done so remarkably well that you wont even notice.
		I felt that the book was about a man lost on his on canvas and the picture of his life he is painting as his writes his memories.I hope that my review does justice to the book.

		In repairing and rebinding books, a bookbinder or conservator aims to increase a book's longevity in a manner that is sympathetic with the original materials.

		Book conservators and others who may not wish to tan leather but do wish to become better acquainted with their materials can read the book as an informative introduction to the history and chemistry of leather.
