Frantz Funck-Brentano, Jeanne d’Arc, Illustrated Edition.

AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Magnificent illustrated edition of this historical and patriotic biography that passionately recounts the life, mission, and martyrdom of the Pucelle d’Orléans, in elegant and dramatic prose typical of the academic historian.

Based on medieval sources, trials, chronicles, and testimonies, Funck-Brentano reconstructs the dazzling journey of Jeanne — from her birth in Domrémy to her divine call, her military victories, her role in Charles VII's coronation, her capture, her unjust trial in Rouen, and her death on the scaffold in 1431 — all while highlighting her faith, courage, innocence, and mystical genius.

This portrait, both historical and ideological, contributes to the secular canonization of Joan of Arc by placing her at the heart of national identity and French collective memory.

Frantz Funck-Brentano & Octave Denis Victor Guillonnet - Jeanne d'Arc - SD (1929) - C. Boivin et Cie -
83 pages.

Very good condition of the binding, work in its original half cloth, light signs of use, faded headbands and corners, smooth spine titled in black, charming drawings on the covers.

Good interior condition, some foxing, work enriched with numerous color illustrations outside the text.

Delivery service guaranteed within a few days.
