Bernard J. Dobski on Mark Twain's Recollections of Joan of Arc

  • Resumen

  • Professor B.J. Dobski joins Greg and David this week to examine Mark Twain’s Personal Recollections of Joan of Arc, a work that stands in stark contrast to Twain’s more familiar satirical writings. Through careful analysis, and using his latest book—Mark Twain’s Joan of Arc: Political Wisdom, Divine Justice, and the Origins of Modernity—as a backdrop, Dobski illuminates Twain’s treatment of virtue, heroism, and historical memory, as well as the novel’s philosophical and political dimensions. The conversation situates Twain’s Joan within broader questions of leadership, sainthood, and the moral imagination.
