Summary "Blanche et Bleue ou les deux couleuvres-fées, roman chinois" by Stanislas Julien is a novel written in the early 19th century. This work serves as a translation of a Chinese fairy tale that delves into themes of virtue, suffering, and destiny through the lives of magical serpents entwined with human characters. The story primarily revolves around the titular characters, Blanche and Bleue, who are fées, or fairies, with uniquely rich backstories tied to their transformations and relationships with humans. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to Hân-wen, a young man who has lost his parents and is being cared for by his older sister. The narrative quickly intertwines his fate with that of the two magical serpents, Blanche and Bleue, who have dedicated themselves to cultivating virtue for centuries. As Hân-wen navigates his life, he encounters the two spirits disguised as beautiful women at the scenic lake Si-hou, leading to a series of events that link their destinies. The opening reveals a burgeoning romance and hints at the challenges and magical trials they must face together, setting the stage for a tale rich in fantasy and moral lessons.
