抄録

This paper attempts to reveal how Quiller-Couch's retold story of Henry VI. Part 1 altered the representation of Joan of Arc. The first part surveys Shakespeare's place in history education and analyses Quiller-Couch's preface. The second part compares the representation of Joan between Shakespeare's play and Quiller-Couch's retold story. Through these, this paper claims that Joan of Arc in Quiller-Couch's version is represented as a figure who is rather opposite from Shakespeare. The images of Joan as a prostitute and a witch are omitted in Quiller-Couch, as a result of omitting contemptuous treatment of Joan by English nobles.
