From the transcript
Dressing in men's clothing and claiming to be being guided by the divine voices may not seem too outrageous today, but for a peasant girl in France during the 1400 s, this was to say the least a little unusual. At the age of 13 Joan, believing she was the designated savior of France, secured a meeting with Charles, yet to be crowned king.
Convincing him of her beliefs and dressed as a man, she helped him to secure a victories in battle that led to his coronation in 1429.
Unfortunately for Joan, the king showed no loyalty towards her when she was captured and handed over to the English, and at the hands of the church, she was charged with witchcraft and, dressing as a man, unsurprisingly, she was found guilty, and in May 1431 at the age of 19, she was burned at the stake in Rouen in front of an estimated 10,000 spectators.
