Joan of Arc: A Self-Portrait is a book written by Willard Trask that provides a unique perspective on the life and legacy of the famous French heroine. Rather than relying solely on historical accounts and interpretations of Joan's life, Trask presents a collection of Joan's own words and writings, allowing readers to gain insight into her thoughts, beliefs, and motivations.The book is divided into sections that cover different periods of Joan's life, from her childhood in Domr�����my to her trial and execution in Rouen. Each section includes excerpts from Joan's letters, speeches, and other writings, as well as commentary and context from Trask. Through these primary sources, readers are able to see Joan as she saw herself, rather than through the lens of later historians and myth-makers.In addition to Joan's own words, the book also includes illustrations and photographs that help bring her world to life. Overall, Joan of Arc: A Self-Portrait offers a fascinating glimpse into the mind and heart of one of history's most remarkable women, and is a must-read for anyone interested in Joan of Arc or medieval history more broadly.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
