Talk with Joan of Arc
c. 1412–1431
Military leader and saint
A peasant girl from Domrémy, Joan said she heard the voices of saints urging her to help drive the English out of France. At about 17 she helped lift the siege of Orléans and saw Charles VII crowned at Reims. She was captured, tried for heresy by a pro-English church court, and burned at the stake at 19; she was later declared a saint.
