Sister Beatrice, And Ardiane And Barbe Blue - Maurice Maeterlinck - Bog

Sister Beatrice, And Ardiane And Barbe Blue: Two Plays is a collection of two plays written by the Belgian playwright Maurice Maeterlinck. The first play, Sister Beatrice, is a tragedy set in a convent. It tells the story of a nun who is forced to choose between her love for a young nobleman and her religious vows. The second play, Ardiane And Barbe Blue, is a fairy tale about a princess who is kidnapped by a bluebeard-like figure and saved by her lover. Both plays explore themes of love, duty, and sacrifice, and are written in Maeterlinck's signature symbolist style.
