With Saint Joan, Shaw reached the height of his fame as a dramatist. Fascinated by the story of Joan of Arc (canonized in 1920), but unhappy with the whitewash which disfigures her beyond recognition, he presents a realistic Joan: proud, intolerant, nave, foolhardy, always brave-a rebel who challenged the conventions and values of her day.
