"Lão râu xanh" hay "Yêu râu xanh" (tiếng Pháp: La barbe bleüe) là một tác phẩm đồng thoại do tác giả Charles Perrault công bố tại Pháp năm 1697.[1][2][3]
Lịch sử
Nguyên bản La barbe bleüe vốn nằm trong hợp tuyển Histoires ou contes du temps passé, avec des moralités: contes de ma Mère l'Oye (Truyện cổ Mẹ Ngỗng) được ông Charles Perrault san hành tại Paris năm 1697, số hiệu ATU 312[4][5].
Năm 1812, anh em Grimm quyết định đưa vào hợp tuyển Kinder- und Hausmärchen (Truyện cho thiếu nhi và gia đình) dưới nhan đề Der Blaubart, số hiệu KHM 62a, nhưng đây cũng chỉ là bản chép theo lời kể của người nhà Hassenpflug. Tuy nhiên, ở các lần tái bản sau, có lẽ vì lường trước nội dung quá rùng rợn nên nhóm tác gia lược bỏ vĩnh viễn khỏi hợp tuyển[6].
Tới năm 1845, tác gia Ludwig Bechstein lại hiệu đính truyện này vào trứ tác Deutsches Märchenbuch (Dân thoại Đức) dưới nhan đề mới Das Märchen vom Ritter Blaubart (Truyện lão râu xanh), số hiệu Nr. 70 - 1845 Nr. 79. Bên cạnh đó, tác gia Ernst Heinrich Meier cũng soạn lại thành König Blaubart (Chúa râu xanh), in trong tập Deutsche Volksmärchen aus Schwaben (Dân thoại miền Schwaben), số hiệu Nr. 38[7][8].
Nội dung
Vùng nọ có quan bá tước giàu nứt đố đổ vách, đã kết hôn tới ba lần mà cứ ít lâu các phu nhân lại biệt tích. Một dạo, bá tước dạm hỏi nhà tá điền gần đấy, nhưng hai đứa con gái nhà ấy đều chê lão vì bộ râu quái gở. Mà rồi lão gặng mãi, cô út Ariane cũng thuận tình, hôm tiệc cưới ai cũng khen bá tước hào phóng và đĩnh đạc.
Ít lâu sau, bá tước bận đi xa, giao vợ chìa khóa cả lâu đài nhưng dặn cấm được mở căn buồng chỗ tầng trệt. Nhà vắng, cô chị bèn sang chơi, nghe kể lại bèn xúi Ariane mở vào ngó thử, sau một hồi đắn đo, cô chiều lòng. Khi vừa mở cửa buồng, hai cô bàng hoàng trước cảnh tượng những thi thể ba phu nhân cũ bị chặt từng khúc. Ariane hoảng quá đâm đánh rơi thìa khóa xuống vũng máu, bất thần bá tước trở về và phát hiện bí mật đã bại lộ. Quan bá tước dọa chặt hai chị em ra từng khúc, khiến họ liều chạy lên đỉnh tháp tìm cách báo hiệu cho các anh. Đúng lúc bá tước tuốt kiếm định đạp cửa xông vào chỗ hai chị em thì hai người anh tới giáng cho y đòn trí mạng. Góa phụ Ariane bỗng chốc hưởng gia tài kếch sù, bèn chia phần cho chị và các anh, rồi cô cưới người xứng hơn.

Thi pháp
Khởi nguyên
Theo khảo dị, tác gia Charles Perrault đã dựa theo một số sử thi và truyền thuyết dân gian để chắp nối thành tác phẩm Lão râu xanh, chứ không hoàn toàn là hư cấu. Có thể nói, tác phẩm này là sự phái sinh lớp huyền thoại khẩu truyền về những quái nhân chuyên ruồng rẫy vợ con, đồng thời tồn tại như một dạng trào phúng chủ đề anh hùng cứu mĩ nhân. Theo giới nghiên cứu, hành vi này có bản chất ghen tương, nhưng phát xuất điểm sâu hơn lại là nhu cầu thỏa mãn tình dục[9].
Ý tượng
Quan điểm học giới cho rằng, chủ đề tác phẩm không nằm ở diễn biến mà chính ở hai khổ thơ cuối truyện, mà tác giả đặt nhan đề là Luân thường (Moralité) và Đạo lý (Autre moralité). Chủ đề tác phẩm hướng tới là đả kích thói ưa tọc mạch của nữ lưu và bản lĩnh ươn hèn ở những nhân vật anh hùng rơm (pantoffelhelden) đầy dẫy thời đại mà tác giả đã sống, hay đích đáng hơn, truyện là cái nhìn của tác giả về hiện tượng cám dỗ tình dục trong xã hội chung[10].
La curiosité, malgré tous ses attraits, | Pour peu qu’on ait l’esprit sensé, |
Theo nhà phân tâm học Bruno Bettelheim, tình tiết nhân vật bá tước có xu hướng kết hôn với thiếu nữ, hay đúng ra là lứa nhi đồng, được thể hiện trong truyện như một bí mật kinh hoàng sau cánh cửa - đấy là vấn đề ấu dâm trong xã hội. Ở đây, bộ râu xanh có vị thế là công cụ tình dục của nam giới. Hình tượng vết máu khó gột sạch là biểu hiện cho sự thiếu chung thủy của nữ giới (bội phản chồng bằng cách không vâng lời), vì thế thói ghen tương chỉ là tất yếu và có thể coi như nguyên nhân của cái chết, mà cái chết là kết quả cuối cùng trong chuỗi hành vi[11].
Còn theo triết gia Emmanuel d'Hooghvorst, hình tượng chòm râu xanh là một vấn đề bí truyền của những người Kabbalah. Cũng vì vậy, đa số ấn bản hoặc tác phẩm văn nghệ Âu châu phỏng theo Lão râu xanh đều diễn tả nhân vật bá tước ăn vận như một nhà giả kim thuật Do Thái.
Phong hóa
Tại Âu châu, khẩu ngữ râu xanh được dùng để chỉ những kẻ chuyên cuồng sát phụ nữ như Fritz Honka hay Arwed Imiela.
Còn tại Việt Nam, tác phẩm Charles Perrault đã được dịch sang Việt văn ngay từ đầu thế kỷ XX dưới nhan đề Yêu râu xanh. Về sau, cụm từ này chuyển hóa thành biệt ngữ chỉ chung những kẻ có thói sàm sỡ nhi đồng phụ nữ hoặc bọn tội phạm chuyên hiếp dâm ở chỗ vắng.
