Beschreibung

Immerse yourself in Mark Twains captivating portrayal of Joan of Arc in Personal Recollections of Joan of Arc, by the Sieur Louis de Conte. This unique narrative is crafted as a translation of memoirs by Joans fictional page and secretary, Louis de Conte, who offers an intimate glimpse into her extraordinary life. Twains storytelling brings to life the trials and triumphs of Joan, making her story accessible and engaging for readers. Originally serialized in Harpers Magazine in 1895 and published in book form in 1896, this recording includes the complete text, restoring the chapters cut by the magazines editors due to their intense nature. De Contes perspective guides us through the pivotal moments of Joans life—from her childhood in Domremy to her role as a military leader and her harrowing trial in Rouen. Twain based his vivid portrayal of Joan on his daughter, Susy Clemens, at seventeen, which adds a deeply personal touch to the narrative. Twain once remarked, I like Joan of Arc best of all my books, and its clear that this work was a labor of love that took twelve years to prepare and two years to write.
