Entre las numerosas obras de Mark Twain, Recuerdos personales de Juana de Arco ocupa un lugar verdaderamente excepcional. Alejado aquà del tono predominantemente humorÃstico que lo hizo célebre, Twain construye un apasionado homenaje literario a una de las figuras más extraordinarias de la historia de Francia.
La novela adopta la forma de las memorias de Louis de Conte, supuesto compañero de infancia, paje y secretario de Juana de Arco. Desde esa perspectiva Ãntima, el lector acompaña a la joven desde sus primeros años en Domrémy y el despertar de su vocación hasta la liberación de Orleans, la coronación de Carlos VII, su captura, el proceso de Ruan y su martirio.
Basándose ampliamente en los testimonios históricos conservados sobre Juana de Arco, Mark Twain combina documentación y ficción para construir un relato de gran intensidad narrativa. Su protagonista aparece como una joven dotada de una extraordinaria fortaleza moral: humilde y decidida, compasiva y valiente, capaz de mantenerse fiel a su misión frente a la guerra, las intrigas polÃticas y la traición.
Esta edición de Editorial Stauros presenta una nueva traducción Ãntegra al castellano moderno, realizada directamente del texto original en inglés, procurando conservar la fuerza narrativa, el humor, la solemnidad y la emoción de la obra de Mark Twain, con un lenguaje claro y accesible para el lector contemporáneo.
La edición incluye además una nota editorial y una presentación biográfica de Mark Twain que ayudan a situar la obra en su contexto histórico y literario.
Una gran novela histórica sobre la fe, el valor, la vocación, el sacrificio y la fidelidad a la propia conciencia, y uno de los retratos literarios más conmovedores jamás dedicados a la Doncella de Orleans.
