Venue se livrer à la Bête pour sauver son père, la Belle finit par aimer le monstre qui se révélera alors être un beau prince ensorcelé... Tout le monde connaît l'une ou l'autre des adaptations de ce célèbre conte sous forme de film ou de dessin animé. L'histoire imaginée par Madame de Beaumont est devenue mythique. Elle glorifie la "beauté intérieure" qui peut exister dans l'être le plus laid, voire terrifiant, et la valeur de ceux qui, comme la Belle, savent aller au-delà des apparences. Une histoire à vocation édifiante, donc, qui doit son succès au sujet comme à la manière dont il est traité : le merveilleux est constamment présent, et la structure du récit, avec la succession d'épreuves dont l'héroïne doit triompher, reprend celle des récits traditionnels. Un très beau texte devenu un grand classique.

Jeanne-Marie Leprince de Beaumont was a French writer who wrote the best-known version of Beauty and the Beast, an abridged adaptation of the 1740 fairy tale by Gabrielle-Suzanne Barbot de Villeneuve. Born to a middle-class family, she was raised alongside her younger sister, Catherine Aimée. Both were provided education at a convent school and stayed on as teachers. Rather than remain and take her vow as a nun, she left for Metz, France, and became a governess for a prominent family in a court in Lunéville. As a long-time educator, she became well known for her written works on behavior and instructional teaching for young women. Her interest in the genre of education contributed to her inclusion of fairytales to teach moral behavior.
