  • Saint Joan Timeline Compiled by Richard Rossi
    1 Saint Joan Timeline Compiled by Richard Rossi A certain understanding of the historical background to Saint Joan is necessary to fully understand the various intricacies of the play. As an ocean of ink has been spilled by historians on Joan herself, I shall not delve too deeply into her history, keeping closely to what is relevant to the script. My dates, which may not necessarily match those that Shaw used, are the historically accepted dates; where there is discrepancy, I have notated. In some cases, I have also notated which characters refer to certain events in the timeline. There is a great deal of history attached to this script; the Hundred Years War was neither clean nor simple, and Joan was, as The Inquisitor says, “...crushed between these mighty forces, the Church and the Law.” 1st Century: Saint Peter founds the Catholic Church of Rome. (Warwick mentions St. Peter) 622: Establishment of Mohammad’s political and religious authority in Medina. (Cauchon mentions the prophet) 1215: The Waldensian movement, founded by Peter Waldo around 1170, is declared heretical at the Fourth Lateran Council. The movement had previously been declared heretical in 1184 at the Synod of Verona, and in 1211 80+ Waldensians were burned at the stake at Strausbourg. This was one of the earliest proto-Protestant groups and was very nearly destroyed. 1230’s: Establishment of the Papal Inquisition, which would later prosecute the trial against Joan of Arc. (Mentioned by Warwick. This is the same inquisition mentioned throughout the script) 1328: Charles IV of France dies without a male heir, ending the Capetian Dynasty and raising some very serious questions regarding the right of inheritance.

  • Joan of Arc As Prisonnière De Guerre1
    1 Joan of Arc as prisonnière de guerre1 Abstract Contrary to what has been previously claimed, the birth of the French term prisonnier de guerre dates back to long before the early seventeenth century. The corpus of documents which form the foundation of this article includes some sixty occurrences of the term (in French or Latin) over a period of more than a century, the earliest dating to 1357. In contrast with previous studies on the status of prisoners of war which have tended to rely on a modern conception of the term, this present investigation focuses on contemporary perceptions of those who were designated prisonniers de guerre in the later middle ages. The significance of this discussion is demonstrated in particular through the case of Joan of Arc, who, perhaps surprisingly, was considered a prisonnière de guerre by the English. In her case – which was by no means an exception to the general rule – the status of prisonnier de guerre derived from the property rights which her ‘master’ (or captor) enjoyed over her. It did not involve any protection of the prisoner her (or him) self. Contemporary debates around the status of prisonniers de guerre, when such questions were raised, were focused on the rights of the master. Perhaps is it more appropriate not to speak of the status prisoner of war but rather the status of the master of the prisoner of war. Keywords: Joan of Arc, Prisoner of war, Ransom, Property right, Combatant status 1 I would like to express my deep gratitude to Professor Anne Curry who provided generous and useful advice throughout the process of building up this argument.

My mother had what the French call a culte for the heroine whose life I have attempted to write in the following pages. It was but natural that one who loved and admired all that is good and beautiful and high-minded should have a strong feeling of admiration for the memory of Joan of Arc. On the pedestal of the bronze statue, which my mother placed in her house at Cliveden, are inscribed those words which sum up the life and career of the Maid of Orleans:-- '_La grande pitié qu'il y avait au royaume de France._' Thinking that could my mother have read the following pages she would have approved the feeling which prompted me to write them, I inscribe this little book to her beloved memory.

  • Saint Joan Script Glossary Compiled by Richard Rossi Italicized Definitions Have an Accompanying Picture Scene I
    1 Saint Joan Script Glossary Compiled by Richard Rossi Italicized definitions have an accompanying picture Scene I Meuse River: During the time of the play, this roughly North/South river indicated the border between the Holy Roman Empire and the Kingdom of France. Approximately the red line, with Lorraine as the tan county at the bottom right, and Champagne on the left. Lorraine: The Duchy of Upper Lorraine, ruled by the dynasty of Gérard de Châtenois, was de facto independent from the 10th to 15th centuries. Intersected by the Meuse and Moselle rivers, it had a great deal of trade and information passing through, which made it an enticing target. In 1431, a mere two years after the start of Saint Joan, the Duchy was ceded to the House of Anjou, specifically René I, from whom it was incorporated into France in 1480. Champagne: Under the rule of the Counts of Champagne until 1284, the marriage of Philip the Fair and Joan I of Navarre brought it under the royal domain. During the High Middle Ages (1000-1300), the County of Champagne was one of the most powerful fiefs in France, home to the largest financial and commercial markets in Western Europe. 2 Vaucouleurs Castle: The main defense of “the town that armed Joan of Arc” and the residence of Robert de Baudricourt. The unruined structures, including the gothic chapel on the right, were rebuilt during the 18th century. Robert de Baudricourt: (1400-1454) minor French nobility, the son of the chamberlain of the Duke of Bar (Liebald de Baudricourt).

  • La Hire Et Poton De Xaintrailles, Capitaines De Charles Vii Et Compagnons De Jeanne D’Arc
    Camenulae 15, octobre 2016 Christophe FURON LA HIRE ET POTON DE XAINTRAILLES, CAPITAINES DE CHARLES VII ET COMPAGNONS DE JEANNE D’ARC « Inséparables »1, « compagnons de Jeanne »2 : telle est l’image que La Hire, moins connu sous le nom d’Étienne de Vignoles, et Jean, dit Poton, de Xaintrailles laissèrent à la postérité, jusque dans l’historiographie la plus récente. Invariablement, les historiens les présentent comme de rudes capitaines de compagnie gascons, toujours fidèles au dauphin puis roi Charles VII, dont le point d’orgue de leur carrière se situe au moment de l’épopée johannique, plus précisément lors du siège d’Orléans3. Pourtant, les historiens se sont peu intéressés à ces deux capitaines : la dernière publication consacrée à La Hire date de 19684 et, pour ce qui concerne Poton de Xaintrailles, il faut remonter à… 19025. C’est cette image, persistante dans l’historiographie française au point d’en devenir un lieu commun, qu’il convient donc d’interroger. Il ne s’agit pas de tenter de dissocier le mythe de l’Histoire mais plutôt de comprendre comment, au cours des siècles, l’un et l’autre se sont nourris au point de constituer aujourd’hui une sorte d’image d’Épinal de la guerre de Cent Ans et de l’histoire de Jeanne d’Arc. Pour cela, retracer les carrières respectives des deux capitaines permet de comprendre le rôle du roi dans leur ascension, d’évaluer la place et l’éventuelle incidence que l’épopée johannique a pu avoir sur celle-ci et de questionner la réalité de leur compagnonnage.

TRANSLATOR'S PREFACE To arrive at a just estimate of a renowned man's character one must judge it by the standards of his time, not ours. Judged by the standards of one century, the noblest characters of an earlier one lose much of their luster; judged by the standards of to-day, there is probably no illustrious man of four or five centuries ago whose character could meet the test at all points.
