JOKE-OGRAPHY: 1. After Joan finally acquired an escort from Sir Robert, she journeyed across hostile territory to Chinon to meet the dauphin. It was for this journey that she cut her hair short and wore male clothes. In addition to making it easier to ride, run, and fight (if necessary), Joan seemed to feel her purity was better protected by male clothes as she traveled through lands infested with raiders and bandits. As for who inspired her to don this disguise, she's vague about it when asked in her trial. Depending on the source, she either charges no one, or says that only her Voices told her, and no living man. 2. In this cartoon, we skip a lot of boring stuff. Basically the dauphin wanted to be sure Joan wasn't crazy or evil before he risked face by endorsing her. He sent her to some theological scholars for rigorous days of testing. First, some nuns verified her virginity, which was important because, back then, only virgins were believed to receive divine visions. Virginity also meant she hadn't cavorted with devils to acquire magic, which is just fully the most cracked thing I've ever heard. Anyway, she passed, so then she was questioned by doctors of religion, where she was found to be of decent Catholic upbringing. The scholars even scraped together a few vague prophecies -- regarding a maid who would save France -- to support her since she seemed somewhat legit. With no way to know for sure, however, the dauphin decided to just send her to Orléans. She said her first mission was to raise the siege there, so why not let her go to prove whether God was really guiding her? 3. "Cross-dressing" means dressing in clothes meant for the opposite sex. In Joan's time, cross-dressing was considered a sin unless it was done for a good reason, like practical necessity or guarding one's chastity (both of which defined Joan's use of men's clothes). In this cartoon, one of the scholars warns the dauphin that Joan's cross-dressing could be risky if people don't see it the right way. He obviously means "cross-dressing" as in "wearing the other sex's clothes", but Joan thinks he means it as in "wearing an actual cross", so she asks if she can carry her cross instead of wearing it. This is funny.

JUNE OF ARC continues! Mondays and Fridays all June long!

JOKE-OGRAPHY: 1. When Joan was 16 years old, the English were sieging the city of Orléans, and her Voices told her it was her job to banish them. She had to go to Vaucouleurs, acquire knightly escort from Sir Robert, travel through enemy territory to Chinon, meet the dauphin (the uncrowned prince of France), offer her leadership to his army, go to Orléans, raise the siege, then escort the dauphin through more enemy territory to be crowned in the city of Reims (which was the traditional place for French coronations). Super easy. Barely an inconvenience. 2. Sir Robert de Baudricourt met with Joan but denied her request for escort twice before finally giving in. Her persistence won her the support of the townsfolk first, then some of Robert's knights, then finally Robert himself. She's our perSISTER in Christ! 3. In this cartoon, Robert is suspicious of Joan, saying her request to see the dauphin can't be serious. She assures him it "DAUPHIN-ately" is, which is a play on the word "definitely" using the word "dauphin".
