Summary of 'Beauty and the Beast'

Beauty and the Beast is a classic fairy tale that tells the story of love, inner beauty, and redemption. The
tale follows a young woman named Beauty, who selflessly offers to live in a mysterious castle with a
fearsome Beast to save her father.

The story begins with Beauty’s father, a merchant, who stumbles upon a grand castle while seeking
shelter. He picks a rose for Beauty, which angers the Beast, the castle’s master. As punishment, the Beast
demands that the merchant stay or send one of his daughters in his place. Beauty, being kind and dutiful,
volunteers to go.

At first, Beauty is terrified of the Beast’s monstrous appearance, but she gradually comes to appreciate
his kindness. The Beast provides her with luxurious surroundings and treats her with respect. Over time,
Beauty sees past his exterior and recognizes his gentle and noble heart. The Beast asks her to marry him
repeatedly, but she declines, though their friendship deepens.

One day, Beauty longs to visit her family and the Beast reluctantly agrees, giving her a magical mirror and
a ring. However, she stays away longer than promised, and the Beast begins to waste away from
heartbreak. Realizing her deep feelings for him, Beauty rushes back to the castle and finds the Beast near
death. As she confesses her love, the Beast transforms into a handsome prince, breaking a spell that had
cursed him.

The story concludes with Beauty and the prince living happily together, emphasizing the moral that true
beauty lies within and that love can transcend appearances. Beauty and the Beast remains one of the
most beloved fairy tales, inspiring countless adaptations in literature, film, and theater.
