At
the time of Joan’s birth in 1412 English troops had been fighting on
French soil for some 75 years occupying much of the country and
preventing the coronation of a French king.
In response to a number of promptings by voices she heard in prayer,
Joan abandoned her peasant homelife to rally the armies of France and
lead them to several significant victories.
She achieved her goal of seeing the Dauphin crowned at Rheims as
Charles VII, but when hostile forces at Compiegne captured her
afterwards, King Charles left her to her fate.
French clergy friendly to the English cause condemned Joan as a heretic
-- in part because she wore men’s clothing, but mostly because she
refused to deny the reality of what she heard in prayer.
She was burned at the stake on May 30, 1431, and her ashes were
scattered in the Seine. Another Catholic tribunal exonerated her 25
years later, and she was canonized as a saint in 1920.
White butterflies followed Joan wherever she rode with her unfurled
banner. An English soldier made a crude cross of sticks and handed it
to her shortly before she was burned.
This nineteen-year-old martyr died rather than compromise the clear
path shown by her conscience. In this she has been an inspiration for
many in our own day. |
