Joan of Arc - Heroine or Heretic? - Part 5 - Extra History

[@extrahistory]

Joan's status as a national symbol would only grow over the centuries, and in 1920, the same church that had condemned Joan as a heretic officially declared her a saint. The girl who had defended Orleans, taken the Loire castles, and failed outside the walls of Paris had made a final conquest-she’d stormed the gates of Heaven. bit.ly/EHPatreon

[@andersstengard6293]

A couple of brief points: The trial lacked ecclesiastical legitimacy. Cauchon lacked the jurisdiction to question Joan and the man he sent to investigate her home village whether she was a virgin was robbed of his promised salary. Plus, Cauchon also stacked Pro-English clergy to supervise the trial and violated the law further by denying Joan a legal adviser. Joan asked for French clergy to make it look impartial and balanced. They refused. The Vice-Inquisitor himself complained about this and was threatened with murder to stay in line. Several others said that it was the Church's right to conduct these trials, rather than a politically motivated court. Cauchon ignored all of them and proceeded. There was also the context needed for cross-dressing at the time. Catholic doctrine AT THE TIME dictated that it was fine for women to wear male clothing as a necessity, including protection from rape, as Joan had later testified that an English Lord had come into her cell for obvious reasons and that soldiers had taken her dress away, leaving her with nothing else to wear. In light of this context, all of Europe could see that her trial was a sham. So no one objected when Charles called for a re-trial, not even the English. The Pope himself authorized it and they followed Church law and found that certain and important parts of the testimony had been falsified to disprove Joan. This whole ordeal was supposed to be Cauchon's moment of glory for the Church. It proved instead to be the greatest shame he had ever brought upon it. For this, he was posthumously excommunicated. Okay, so more than a few points, but there you go.

[@nxdiaz5916]

You know for a bunch guys who are so proud of their knowledge of theocracy and church doctrine, they seemed completely blind to the fact they were basically doing the same thing to Joan that the Pharisees and the Romans did to Jesus. A random person emerges from a nowhere village claiming a divine message, gains a following, performs miracles and incredible feats, triumphs where others thought were impossible, is betrayed and given up to the enemy, and charged in a kangaroo court that wasp politically motivated. She even answers the same heresy questions with the same wit and quickness as Big J, when he was questioned. Then is executed only to gain an even bigger following in death. For all their research, and trick questions they seemed to completely unable to read the signs that were right in front of them.

I've always loved Joan. When I was little, about seven, I had the "Wishbone" episode about her ("Bone of Arc") on VHS and I'd watch it all the time, running around my living room acting out her part. To me, Joan is a symbol that faith in the divine and following an organized religion are not the same things, and that the greatest patriotism you can show to your country is to question its leaders. Joan, an illiterate peasant girl who'd grown up in nature, and indeed first heard her voices there, was more devout and sharply witted about her beliefs than learned theologians. She fought for her king and believed in his right to rule yet wasn't afraid to speak her mind or take action when their political views differed. In short, Joan lives through the ages as an example of what happens when you come to truly know yourself, strive for a higher good, and refuse to let anyone define you as otherwise. Wherever your spirit is now, brave lady, I hope it's at peace. Blessed be, beautiful Joan. )O(

correction: about near 600 years She died in 1430 or 1431

[@nilnil12345]

The Legend of the Maid of Orleans still continue to inspire millions across the world. She is the epitome of women empowerment of the highest level.

[@clickbaitcabaret8208]

great job on this documentary. SALUTE!!

[@Delance1]

The evil bishop was posthumously excommunicated by the Church. Joan is a saint, he is... not.

[@Momo_Kawashima]

The bishop really had a Micah moment. "She's lyin'... SHEEE'S LYYYIIIIIINNN'!!!"

[@christobanistan8887]

18 years later... English: We've made a HUGE mistake!

[@napoleonbonaparte9166]

English would have lost the war anyway. England lost any hope of victory at the peace treaty between Armagnacs and Burgundians.

Been waiting all week for this episode

[@kevinnorwood8782]

I bet if Walpole was in the trial helping her he would have probably managed to convict every one of the acusers made her a saint and then somehow made money from the event

[@christiangarza8122]

Joan before the Gates of Heaven *Cough* "GEEEEEEEET 'EEEEEEEEEEEEMMM!!"

[@RFieth]

Obviously she was not going to die jumping from the tower, a 70-foot drop is only 7d6 damage. At this point Joan was clearly a high-level paladin and had enough HP to withstand that.

[@AdityaKabir]

"She stormed the gates of heaven." So beautifully said. Amen.

[@Badkarma_locohijodeputa]

Joan of Arc was born in 1412, in Domremy, France. The daughter of poor tenant farmers Jacques d’ Arc and his wife, Isabelle, also known as Romée, Joan learned piety and domestic skills from her mother. Never venturing far from home, Joan took care of the animals and became quite skilled as a seamstress.

[@juliusofthelake1458]

The dark timeline

[@juanrojas6063]

Ive rewatched these videos so many times in the last couple years, so incredibly well made and good, Joan of arc is such a cool historical figure and this does such a good job of recapping her story in an entertaining and easy to share way

[@fyraltari1889]

Funny thing, in French Bishop Cauchon sounds exactly like Bishop cochon = Bishop pig.

[@geantvertnounours]

To think that he was made a saint in the cathedral makes me sad... But thinking that he is now physically close to Joan (in the same cathedral), which was made a saint too, makes me smile. Thinking about Joan bullying him eternally in Heaven lol.

[@scottydu81]

That'd be funny if not for the fact that speaking french fills my mouth with a taste of mud.

[@TheCreepypro]

one of the more interesting people in history that deserves the series you gave her so thanks for that

[@lackingcool127]

When EC release 2 episodes of history in the span of 3 days **checks pulse** I’m not in heaven?!

[@benselectionforcasting4172]

Joan d'Arc and Julie d'Aubigny are probably having a great ol' time on that battlefield in the sky.

[@Pointillax]

I live in Rouen, the Place de la Pucelle (call it "Maiden Square" maybe ?) is quite a nice place. A neomodern church, roman ruins, and nice bars. I always find it hard picture those people gathered on that square to watch Jeanne burn 600 years ago.

[@TheCrazyspikes]

A wonderful series on Joan. Well put together and entertaining. Joan is one of my go-to characters to prove that history is often more fascinating than fiction. Keep up the good work. I look forward to more.

[@Achillez098]

"[She] made one final conquest, for now, she stormed the gates of heaven" GET EM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@sapphirewyren02]

loved that last line

[@TheGodTell]

amazing conclusion. thanks for the series!

[@euansmith3699]

"... in time, the English killed him too..." what a sad little footnote. "... she'd stormed the gates of Heaven." That got me feeling a little emotional.

[@prestonjones1653]

1:06 You know, the whole "surviving a 70 ft sheer drop" thing probably didn't help her chances of not being called a witch.

Hello!Patrick Bojko suggested to make a series about Vlad Țepeș.If you cover this subject and want to make other videos about Romanian history,here are other interesting subjects: -Daco-Roman Wars - Michael the Brave and the short union of the three romanian countries -Stephen the Great and the Holy (as somebody suggested) -Mircea the Elder -The Battle of Posada -Horea,Cloșca and Crișan -The small union of Alexandru Ioan Cuza -The war of independence of 1877 -Romania in WW1 -The Great Union -Romania in WW2 -The fall of the Ceausescu Regime

[@thamor4746]

Joan of Arc is still one of the craziest stories recycling in history. Was she a made puppet by Charles or was she just a crazy woman who by some luck & religious influence managed to start her journey to being burned at stake. Still one of my own favorites in human history. What everyone learned from this story...."GET'EM!!"

[@mkosmala1309]

Funny enough, Mark Twain (who infamously disliked both the French and the Catholic Church) spent over a decade traveling to and from France, reading all the primary sources, and writing a novel about Joan of Arc. I like Joan of Arc best of all my books,” he wrote shortly before his death, “and it is the best; I know it perfectly well. And besides, it furnished me seven times the pleasure afforded me by any of the others; twelve years of preparation, and two years of writing. The others needed no preparation and got none.” I highly recommend reading it. The prose is absolutely masterful, and it's so thoroughly researched that even historians tend to like it. Joan of Arc was so cool, she made Mark Twain spend almost a decade and a half on a book about a French Catholic Saint.

[@nytdiir]

A bitter end to a strong soul. Glad she got justice after her death, but sad to see a great symbol of France being trodden on by an Burgundian and English show trial.

[@li-lianang8304]

I am in LOVE with the outro music

[@Badkarma_locohijodeputa]

In May 1428, Joan’s visions instructed her to go to Vaucouleurs and contact Robert de Baudricourt, the garrison commander and a supporter of Charles. At first, Baudricourt refused Joan’s request, but after seeing that she was gaining the approval of villagers, in 1429 he relented and gave her a horse and an escort of several soldiers. Joan cropped her hair and dressed in men’s clothes for her 11-day journey across enemy territory to Chinon, the site of Charles’s court. At first, Charles was not certain what to make of this peasant girl who asked for an audience and professed she could save France. Joan, however, won him over when she correctly identified him, dressed incognito, in a crowd of members of his court. The two had a private conversation during which it is said Joan revealed details of a solemn prayer Charles had made to God to save France. Still tentative, Charles had prominent theologians examine her. The clergymen reported they found nothing improper with Joan, only piety, chastity and humility.

[@777Mikos]

Damn it would have been thrilling to follow the events irl. Especially with medieval communications. - "So. there's this new girl, Joan, she kinda important now" two months later - "Dude! You wouldn't even believe!"

[@monsignor2943]

9:49 that moment give me tears in the eyes.

[@theironknight597]

I honestly wish that all those corrupt holy men got what they deserved in the end. May Joan rest in peace...

[@maxthecharacter1296]

The Iron Knight I'm sure God made sure they did.

[@Passions5555]

They could have of repented before their end came

[@maxthecharacter1296]

Sage Ninja The possibility is there. But we can never be sure.

[@NesRuA]

That bishop was retroactively excommunicated for heresy (which is basically the Church recognizing that he’s burning in Hell).

[@buddha3209]

Get em

[@jafrost1328]

this story never fails to move me. no matter how its told, it brings me to tears, ever since i was tiny

[@lexington476]

Who is the shepherd boy? I have never heard of him.

[@notanonymous3976]

lexington476 yeah, i wonder if that's an interesting story in itself

[@Speireata4]

There was a shepherd boy who lead a childrens' crusade, claiming that angels had told him to do that and it would free Jerusalem.

[@millardfillmore2869]

Whats his name

[@ranosian1135]

Old Family story - Im mostly Irish ancestory but I do have some french too. The executioner lied. Joan wasnt reduced to ashes. A few bone fragments survived. The executioner was a secret supporter of Joan and took them. They stayed in the executioners family for a couple generations - before been secretly hidden in a place called Juminges Monestry. *Edit* The story I was told was it "some of the skull, her teeth and pieces of long bone and a single vertebre"

[@SquidsAgainstChickens]

The 1928 French film “The Passion of Joan of Arc” is such a good movie.

That ending gave me chills.

[@christopherg2347]

9:40 "You either die a Heretic, or are dead long enough to be declared a saint."

[@TrentonBlessWrestlemania489]

This has been one of my favorite series from Extra History. Well done!

[@quoniam426]

The City of Orleans keeps the tradition, reliving every year the liberation of the city by Joan of Arc in a big recreation. The city also displays lots of medieval flags in the streets. Many shops sell souvenirs around Joan's legend (of course it became somekind of a tourist trap). Ironically, in Paris, there are a lot of Joan of Arc statues and memorials in churches now.

[@tommyfox854]

*DA&M* , now that's got to be one of the craziest stories we all ever heard with our own ears and read with our own eyes! Talk about a strong female pro. . no, hero for her home. I tip my hat to you and Joan out of pure respect. =)
