Personal Recollections of Joan of Arc, by the Sieur Louis de Conte is an 1896 novel by Mark Twain which recounts the life of Joan of Arc. It is Twain's last completed novel, published when he was 61 years old. The novel is presented as a translation by "Jean Francois Alden" of memoirs by Louis de Conte, a fictionalized version of Joan of Arc's page Louis de Contes. Twain was aware of his reputation as a comic writer and he asked that each installment appear anonymously so that readers would treat it seriously. Regardless, his authorship soon became known, and Harper and Brothers published the book edition with his name in May 1896.

Über Mark Twain

Samuel Langhorne Clemens (1835-1910), besser bekannt unter dem Pseudonym Mark Twain, war ein scharfzüngiger Kritiker der amerikanischen Gesellschaft: humorvoll bis satirisch schrieb er über den alltäglichen Rassismus, Heuchelei, Verlogenheit und Korruption seiner Landsleute. Bereits mit seinen ersten Erzählungen, entstanden in den 60er Jahren des 19. Jahrhunderts, errang er großen litarischen Erfolg, der sich durch die Abenteuergeschichten um die beiden Jungen Tom Sawyer und Huckleberry Finn zu Weltruhm steigerte.
