Joan Of Arc: Holy Mission From God
This source is a magazine article found on MasterFile Premier about Joan of Arc and her battlefield persona along with her “holy” mission from God. Joan of Arc was one of the greatest military leaders in history and a teenager as well. I could not imagine myself leading armies of soldiers into battle. The only teenage military leader that I could say was better at his job would probably be Alexander the Great who would go on to conquer the ancient world. She would be burned at the stake at nineteen and would never reach her twenties. Though most other military leaders/geniuses can say that they are saints. That’s right Joan of Arc was canonized (made a saint) on May 16,1920 by Pope Benedict XV (15). This magazine article goes over, in detail,
Joan’s battlefield experiences such as the Siege of Orleans, her most famous victory. This article also includes several pictures and paintings. One of the pictures is of a helmet that was probably similar to the one that Joan wore during battles. One of the paintings is of the captured Joan being escorted by her captors, the Burgundians. I used this source to help me in my dramatization of the Siege of Orleans and Joan’s role in lifting it. In conclusion, Joan of Arc played a large role in the Hundred Years’ War and will be remembered throughout the course of history.
