 The Creativity of Joan of Arc
Joan's creativity as a warrior is not to be found in the fact that she was a woman.
Joan was a leader because she was good at leading (of course, she credits her inspiration by the Lord for her success).
Joan of Arc's creativity comes not, as commonly thought, from her being a woman and accomplishing what she did, but from her accomplishments and character independent of her Gender.

Joan Fontaine is completely wrong for the part; she's absolutely gorgeous (Jane Eyre is supposed to be extremely plain.) Joan tries to portray Jane's plainness by keeping her head down and shoulder's hunched forward, so we all know that she's plain and humble.
I can understand the problem screenwriters have shortening a story for a screen adaptation, but this one really takes the cake: Jane is about to go back to Lowood School of all places (where she was starved and mistreated as a child by the sadistic schoolmaster, Mr.

 Poems about St. Joan
On January 27, 1894, Pope Leo XIII authorized the introduction of Joan of Arc's cause for beatification, in virtue of which she received the title, "Venerable." From then on it was permitted to "honor her and pray to her publicly," as the Lisieux newspaper Le Normandy explained on January 30.
This betrayal of Joan wounded Thérèse too because it was her own photo of Joan as prisoner that had been jeered at that night.
It was not in victory and glory that Joan was fulfilled, but in the "dungeon" and in "betrayal," where she identified with Jesus.

 Eye - The puppet saint - 10.16.03
On top of the alienation, writer-director Sarah Phillips applies an acute intimacy; Joan is the only main character who appears exclusively as a puppet, while her mother, father, and childhood friend Hauviette are played with great pathos by people, Karin Randoja (who also operates Joan), Patrick McManus and Christine Brubaker respectively.
Joan is fascinated with its heroine's fame, presenting her as an enduring receptacle for a spectrum of fears and desires; this conceit becomes clear as puppet Joan, composed of a Styrofoam head and sequined armor, goes through her grandiose travails, while those around her try, humorously and intimately, to figure it all out.
Randoja looks up at puppet Joan as quizzically as puppet Joan looks up to heaven, and Brubaker, in prayer, becomes the human Joan, twisting her face with the same complex anguish as Renée Falconetti in Dreyer's renowned silent film version.

 master ephelia
It is not entirely preposterous, in view of Ephelia's probable identity in the tricksy 'Mall' Villiers, that "Joan Phillips" was yet another alter-ego of Mary Villiers, an urban identity or cover which allowed this inventive Duchess easy access to the colorful street culture of Restoration London.
Newcombe's allusion is valuable, as it illustrates the continuity of a developing link in the eighteenth-century between the Ephelia poet and Behn's "poet Joan" -- the Joan Phillips whom I suggest 'Mall' Villiers invented as a cover for her literary life outside the constricting confines of the Court and her ducal status.
According to my present reading of the case, "Joan Phillips" was Mary Villiers's urban cover; and the longstanding attribution of Ephelia's work to Joan Phillips is not entirely wrong: it simply names one alter-ego (Ephelia) with another (Joan Phillips).
