Joan of Arc Discussion, Travelogue, and Film Screening
How did an illiterate seventeen-year-old peasant farmgirl take command of a defeated and demoralized army and lead it to an astounding series of great battlefield victories!? Guest speaker Steve Richey answers precisely this question about Joan of Arc, a great and highly unusual one-of-a-kind military leader. In the course of Steve's presentation, he will explain in detail the remarkable traits of character and unique circumstances that enabled Joan to achieve what seemed to be impossible: emerging from utter obscurity to lead her country’s army in turning the tide of a great war and—eventually—freeing her homeland from foreign domination. The presentation will consist of three parts: first, a lecture in which Steve will make his teaching points, and second, a photographic slide show/travelogue following Joan’s path back and forth across France. Finally, Steve will present a screening of Saint Joan of Arc: Maid for God. Click here for futher details: https://calendar.libraryweb.org/calendar/Central/JoanofArc
