>>509356890I mean I can concede that maybe there's some truth in Roman history not being one hundred percent down the line that we've been taught, considering damnatio memoriae had effectively stripped whole emperors from the record until more recent discoveries by archeologists so there being other oddities like some of the history being essentially records of records by people that have been cited as not being totally honest? I'm willing to entertain. Joan however really is hard to do that about at least in regards to what we know as fact due to how autistic they kept on their recordkeeping of her trial
>>509359605Anon you literally can read her court transcripts verbatim, they're well documented enough with enough other real, documented people that I highly, highly doubt that you can call her entire character fiction. At most maybe some exaggeration but even then I have doubts to that. Joan is about as documented a person as we've ever had from before modern technology.
