TRIPPAULT, Jean: L'Histoire et discours au vraiy du siege qui fut mis devant la ville d'Orleans, par les Anglois, le Mardy XII. jour d'Octobre 1428 regnant alors Charles VII. It is the first time that the French have been able to get to know each other and to know each other's culture. It is a good idea to have a copy of the book in your hand. Orléans: Chez Robert Hotot, 1621. In-12 old vellum, 298 pp. uncensored (light spotting, a few traces of period annotations). Copper-engraved frontispiece depicting Joan of Arc, sword in hand. The Histoire et Discours au Vray du Siège qui Fut Mis Devant la Ville d'Orléans (left) is a very first edition of the archival manuscript. Cousinot's account of Jeanne was written around 1470 (though shown here in a later collection of texts), and is based on a group of earlier accounts, including the rehabilitation hearings. It was a primary source for the more religious of the later historians, but is now considered unreliable.
