Bluebeard: An Account of Comorre, the Cursed and Gilles de Rais is a historical account written by Ernest Alfred Vizetelly that explores the lives of two notorious French figures from the Middle Ages. The book is divided into two parts, with the first part detailing the story of Comorre the Cursed, a Breton nobleman who was known for his cruelty and treachery. The second part of the book focuses on Gilles de Rais, a wealthy French nobleman who was convicted of murdering children in the late 15th century. Vizetelly delves into the historical context of both figures, exploring the political and social climate of medieval France. He also examines the legends and myths that have surrounded both Comorre and Gilles de Rais over the centuries. Through extensive research and analysis, Vizetelly provides a detailed and fascinating look at two of the most infamous figures in French history. Overall, Bluebeard: An Account of Comorre, the Cursed and Gilles de Rais is a compelling work of historical non-fiction that sheds light on the darker aspects of medieval France. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of France, true crime, or medieval legends and folklore.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
