| Summary | "Jeanne d'Arc et l'Allemagne" by Léon Bloy is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The work revolves around the remarkable life and martyrdom of Jeanne d'Arc, focusing on her role in saving France from English domination during the Hundred Years' War. Through an intense reflection on her legacy and relationship with both the divine and her nation, the author emphasizes themes of faith, sacrifice, and the eternal significance of Jeanne's mission. The opening of the book introduces Jeanne d'Arc's birth and early life, describing her prophetic nature and the historical context of her time. Bloy elaborates on the miseries faced by France and presents Jeanne as a divinely chosen savior, destined to revive a nation in despair under foreign rule. He reflects on the immediate circumstances surrounding her rise to power, her strong sense of duty called by heavenly voices, and the tragic betrayal she experienced during her life—a foreshadowing of her eventual martyrdom. Through vivid imagery and passionate prose, the author asserts the miraculous elements that surround Jeanne's life and foreshadows her enduring legacy in the face of adversity.
