Across the centuries,
representations of Joan of Arc have undergone numerous
revisions. It was not until the early 19th century that
the political potential of Joan’s image began to
be realized. Since then it has been evoked to help promote
programs and values from both extremes of the political
spectrum, culminating today in her adoption by the Front
National. These shifting images of Joan are explored by
John E. Flower, Professor of French at the University
of Kent at Canterbury, UK.
