About Joan of Arc at the University
Joan of Arc was a mystic, a soldier, a country girl. She fou’nd the dauphin in a court of pretenders; she rode with Bluebeard to raise the siege of Orleans; she led French troops to victory at Jargeau, Meung, Beaugency and Patay; she paved Charles VII’s way to Rheims. She was captured and burned as a heretic by the English, with the complicity of the Church. She is a legend.But her presence is more than legendary.St. Joan is a hero for us now, when we yearn for heroes of more substance than those who flicker on our video screens. She is courageous, full of ginger, resolve, love of life, simple and unshakable faith. She is a politician who doesn’t vacillate. A military strategist who knows the value of honor. A self-taught lawyer who keeps her eye on the truth. Joan is a young woman with a purpose, who would not stoop to dissemble or to sell her integrity to achieve it. She is a girl who listens to her inner voices and is true to them.Joan of Arc was the focus of a three week celebration that took place at Marquette University in the fall of 1996. This book, the fruit of a series of lectures which anchored that celebration, includes essays on Joan’s life and the history of medieval Europe as she helped to shape it; essays on her spirituality; on the legal, political, and theological issues raised in her trial; on artworks and films inspired by her; on French Gothic architecture; on adolescent psychology and feminism as they relate to Joan. These studies represent the University at work: outstanding teachers scholars who bring their unique reflections and common understandings to see Joan in fresh perspective.Joan of Arc is richly remembered here. As Andre Malraux wrote, in words that are incised in the wall of the marketplace at Rouen where Joan was burned: “O Jeanne, sans sepulchre et sans portrait, toi qui savais que le tombeau des heros est le cur des vivants” – “…the tomb of heroes is the heart of the living.” –Mary Elizabeth Tallon, Marquette University
