The
Retrial of Joan of Arc The Evidence
for Her Vindication Regine Pernoud This
book is the first English language book about the retrial of Joan of Arc:
and clearly the best, based firmly on the testimonies given at the
retrial. Written by the renowned French historian, Regine Pernoud, it uses
extensive excerpts from the people who actually knew Joan, bringing to
life this great woman and her powerful story.

Joan
of Arc Mark Twain Because of Mark
Twain's antipathy to institutional religion, one might expect an
anti-Catholic bias toward Joan or at least toward the bishops and
theologians who condemned her. Instead one finds a remarkably accurate
biography of the life and mission of Joan of Arc told by one of this
country's greatest storytellers. The very fact that Mark Twain wrote this
book and wrote it the way he did is a powerful testimony to the attractive
power of the Catholic Church's saints. This is a book that really will
inform and inspire.
St.
Joan: The Girl Soldier Louis de Wohl This
volume in the Vision Books series of saints for youth combines a world
famous Catholic novelist, Louis de Wohl, with one of the most thrilling
and dramatic saint's lives in history, St. Joan of Arc. De Wohl uses his
famed narrative skill to tell young people about the brave teenage French
girl who had visions and led armies in battle, but also about how her
entire life testifies to the amazing power of God's grace.

Joan of Arc A newly restored DVD version of
the lavish 1948 film, with original full-length version footage never
before seen in the United States. Academy Award-winner Ingrid Bergman
(Casablanca) is spellbinding as the 15th century French peasant
girl who rouses a nation and inspires the world with her faith and
bravery. This powerful, visually stunning epic of one of history's most
fascinating heroines features spectacular action and unforgettable
drama!
The
Passion of Joan of Arc A lost masterpiece recently
found and digitally restored to pristine condition, this 1928 film by
acclaimed Carl Dreyer is considered by critics as one of the greatest
films ever made. French actress Reneé Falconetti's performance as Joan is
praised as "the greatest performance on film". It focuses on the saint's
trial and martyrdom. Silent film with English subtitles, includes
Einhorn's brilliant orchestral music Voices of Light.
Joan of Arc: Child of War, Soldier of
God This excellent docu-drama originally aired on
the Hallmark Channel in March, 2005. Viewers will see Joan’s life unfold
through her own eyes and in her own words, and experience the powerful
grip of faith that inspired her to lead. Alfred Molina narrates and Anna
Paquin is the voice of Joan.

MUSIC |
Voices of LightInspired by the film,
The Passion of Joan of Arc, and featuring the acclaimed singing
group Anonymous 4, this stirring music was composed by the renown Richard
Einhorn. It is on opera/oratorio for voices and amplified instrumental
ensemble in celebration of Joan. The libretto is a deeply moving patchwork
of visions, fantasies and reflections assembled from the writings of
Scripture, saints and mystics, and represent the faith, suffering and
inspiration of the life of Joan of
Arc. |
