Joan of Arc and Christine de Pizan's Ditie (Hardcover)

Grounded in a close reading of the records of Joan's trial and
rehabilitation, on the early letters announcing her arrival at
Chinon, and on three literary works; Christine de Pizan's Ditie,
Martin le Franc's Le Champion des dames, and Alain Chartier's,
Traite de l'Esperance, this controversial work argues that serious
historians should accept that Joan was trained. It proposes that
she was identified and taught how to behave in the expectation of
the fulfillment of the Charlemagne Prophecy and other prophecies
from the Joachite tradition. It explores the possibility that
Christine de Pizan, who had been promoting these prophecies from
the beginning of the century, had some hand in the process that
resulted in Joan's appearance and demonstrates, at the very least,
that there are many links connecting Christine de Pizan to the
knights who fought with Joan.
