Résumé de "Visions Of The Maid(p)"

Representations of Joan of Arc have been used in the United States for the past two hundred years, appearing in advertising, cartoons, popular song, art, criticism, and propaganda. Examining pivotal films and a broad array of popular culture references, Robin Blaetz shows the ways in which Joan's androgyny, virginity, and sacrificial victimhood were evoked in relation to the evolving roles of women during war throughout the twentieth century.
