It proposes that she was identified and taught how to behave in the expectation of the fulfillment of the Charlemagne Prophecy and other prophecies from the Joachite tradition. It explores the possibility that Christine de Pizan, who had been promoting these prophecies from the beginning of the century, had some hand in the process that resulted in Joan's appearance and demonstrates, at the very least, that there are many links connecting Christine de Pizan to the knights who fought with Joan.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 1: Christine de Pizan\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 2: Christine’s ‘Ditié’\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 3: Penthesilea’s Charity\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 4: Joan’s testimony\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 5: The Ladies’ Champion\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 6: A very little golden ring\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 7: Merlin and Sibyl and Bede\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 8: The Flying Stag\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 9: Chartier’s Hope\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 10: A Sacred Sword\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 11: Franciscans and Bourbons\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 12: Christine’s whereabouts\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lexington Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51042630893911,"sku":"9781793613165","price":72.9,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/joan-of-arc-and-christine-de-pizans-ditie-9781793613165","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
