Joan of Arc and Rouen

Résumé du livre

(...)

Joan had to discard her suit of armour when she entered Rouen as a prisoner of the English towards the end of the year 1430, but her fighting spirit never wavered despite the gruelling trial she was to undergo. She has long been a source of fascination for artists, historians and indeed anyone who, in the words of André Malraux, can see in her « the genius of action » in an « invulnerable soul ». Take a trip in her footsteps through a Rouen where her memory lingers on.

« It was easier to burn her at the stake than to wrench her from the soul of France. »
André Malraux, 31 mai 1964
