This translation of “La princesse jalouse” (1630), by Jean-Pierre Camus, contributes to our knowledge of sources for Charles Perrault’s “Sleeping Beauty.” Although the main source for Perrault’s tale clearly is Giambattista Basile’s “Sun, Moon, and Talia,” certain elements of his version suggest Perrault also borrowed specific elements from Camus’s tragic story.
