Trial for heresy and sorcery, February-March, 1431, at Rouen.
"Jeanne d'Arc was burned at the stake on May 30, 1431. It was not until some time later, almost certainly not before 1435, that the record of her trial was translated by Thomas de Courcelles, one of her judges, and Guillaume Manchon, trial notary, into Latin from the minutes taken daily during the process of the trial, together with all the forms of letters patent emanating from Pierre Cauchon, bishop of Beauvais, Jean Le Maistre, vice inquisitor of the faith, the doctors of the University of Paris and other dignitaries"--Introd.
