Joan of Arc French Soldier and Saint
by Philip Wolny
Text for Joan of Arc Packet (purchase in Canada)
About the Book by E. Hathaway (excerpt from the Joan of Arc teaching packet) -
Joan of Arc was born around the year 1412, and under typical circumstances for girls in the Middle Ages, she would have grown up to live a quiet and regular life. Joan and her four siblings were well off enough, and as such, Joan would likely have been married to another middle-class farmer in the area. Women, who were famous or influential in the 15th century, were mainly royalty or married into power. Joan, on the other hand, broke through the barriers set before her to become one of the most influential women in French history.

Boccaccio: A Critical Guide to the Complete Works Kindle Edition
Resource for Boccaccio's Decameron
(Forthcoming StoryMap)
Long celebrated as one of “the Three Crowns” of Florence, Giovanni Boccaccio (1313–75) experimented widely with the forms of literature. His prolific and innovative writings—which range beyond the novella, from lyric to epic, from biography to mythography and geography, from pastoral and romance to invective—became powerful models for authors in Italy and across the Continent.
This book has been used to create the first Decameron StoryMap (forthcoming as a teaching tool for HS teachers)
