Hardcover, Folio (13 x 9-3/4 in.). Edition limited to 500 copies. Facsimile in French, Introduction in Latin. The work comprises a 240 page printed facsimile of the original court report of the trial of Joan D'Arc, colour printed and trimmed so as to give it the appearance of the authentic aged document. This has faux vellum covers, around which are card covers, with printed French wrappers. There is a separate 20 page Introduction on Arches laid paper, giving the history and bibliographical details of the original document in the Bibliothèque de l'Assemblée Nationale. Both are housed in a cloth backed folder, with faux vellum boards, and full length paper title label, which in turn is housed in a faux-vellum and cloth slip case. Jeanne d'Arc (1412 - 1431) was a peasant girl who used her religious visions to rally the French armies against the English during the Hundred Year's war. In 1431 she was captured, and in a politically tainted trial strongly remeniscent of the witch-hunts, was convicted and burned at the stake. A quarter century later the decision of the original ecclesiastical court was overturned by Pope Callixtus III, and she was declared a martyr. She remained an important figure in the popular imagination and was beatified in 1909 and canonized in 1920, becoming one of the patron saints of France. A little light rubbing to the slip case, and a few superficial hints of shelf wear. Over all Near Fine.
