- Résumé : Margaret Oliphants "Jeanne d'Arc Her Life and Death" recounts the extraordinary story of the young peasant girl who became Frances savior during the medieval period. This historical biography carefully follows Joans journey from her divine visions to her decisive role in the Hundred Years War. The narrative vividly portrays Joans military victories, including the liberation of Orleans and the coronation of Charles VII at Reims. It also delves into her capture, her unjust trial in Rouen, and her tragic execution. Oliphant examines in depth the political and religious forces that shaped Joans mission and ultimate fate. Beyond recounting historical events, this work explores Joans lasting legacy as a symbol of female bravery and spiritual devotion. It illustrates how a young woman defied societal norms to change the course of European history. This classic work of Victorian literature combines rigorous research with engaging storytelling. It remains one of the most detailed and accessible accounts of Joan of Arcs life, making it ideal for readers interested in medieval history or biographies of influential figures.
- Biographie : Margaret Oliphant (1828 to 1897) was a highly productive Scottish author who wrote over 170 works during her lifetime. As a leading figure in Victorian literature, she supported her family through her writing after losing her husband at an early stage in their marriage. Oliphant was equally skilled in fiction and historical writing. Her biographies of important historical figures combined meticulous research with compelling prose. Jeanne dArc showcases her ability to bring historical characters to life while offering thoughtful analysis of their cultural significance. Although she is less well known today than some of her contemporaries, Oliphants work remains valuable for its insights into nineteenth century society and its portrayal of remarkable women throughout history.
