Written in 1942, the play is the second of three treatments of the Joan of Arc story that Brecht created (after Saint Joan of the Stockyards (written 1929-1931) and before The Trial of Joan of Arc of Proven, 1431 (1952)). The play was written jointly with Leon Feuchtwanger and was completed during their exile in California. Set in France in 1940, it portrays Joan as the patron saint of the resistance movement against the Germans.
