Who Knew? Mark Twain's Joan of Arc

This talk will consider how Mark Twain, author of beloved American classic novels, came to write a novel about the historical figure Joan of Arc. It will show some of his deep affection for Joan of Arc, and his personal outrage at the way she was treated during her trial and imprisonment. 

Following Dr. Morris' presentation each association will hold a brief business meeting, see information below.

Dr. Linda Morris is the winner of the 2020 UC Davis Distinguished Emerita Professorship Award. Retiring from the Department of English in 2005, Dr. Morris has continued her scholarly work and brings great honor to UC Davis for this and her active contributions to her local community.
