Joan of Arc :: essays research papers

Choose one of the women discussed and decide which of the syndromes you think hostelry would have applied to her and why? Do you agree or differ?Joan of Arc the Patron Saint of France could have very easily been characterized below many syndromes by her guild. Joan being a virgin and highly spectral could have been viewed under the Chaste Syndrome, she whitethorn have been viewed under the frolic Syndrome for being a warrior and dressing like a man, or she may have been viewed under the Shame Syndrome for taking command of the French legions leading them to defeat over England. Joan possibly could have been viewed by society under a culmination of all these syndromes, being called a Warrior Queen. It is gruelling to choose just one of Joans abnormalitys or shall I say syndromes according to her society, and the Chaste Syndrome describes her the best from my view.Joan being a virgin, which is none of my business or her communitys, and showing a venerance to God correlates cl osely to the image of the Virgin Mary. Joan being such a close resemblance to the Virgin Mary would allow her society to correct her under the Chaste Syndrome. Throughout the classroom reading assignment on Joan of Arc I get the impression she is pristine and wants nothing but to obey the voices of St. Catherine, and St. Margaret. When being interrogated she says, that the voices told her to fight boldly and God would help her. Joans society would have hopefully seen her under the Chaste Syndrome, she was one to be revered and emulated much like that of the Virgin Mary. In conclusion my prospect stands in disagreeance with Joans society for one reason, a syndrome is defined as a group of signs and symptoms that occur together and characterized a particular abnormality.
