The Second Coming Of Joan Of Arc and Other Plays | Carolyn Gage
Joan is back! The explosive, underground classic The Second Coming of Joan of Arc is back in print at last! For two decades, Carolyn Gages revolutionary play about a cross-dressing, teenaged, runaway lesbian Joan of Arc has been rousing women to resistance inspiring them to walk out of patriarchal institutions and fight for a feminist vision. This new collection includes six other powerful Gage plays: The Last Reading of Charlotte Cushman The greatest actress of the 19th century, a lesbian butch, makes a riotous last stand. Calamity Jane Sends a Message to Her Daughter A lesbian butch stakes her claim to a place in men's history the only way she can. Cookin with Typhoid Mary History's most notorious typhoid carrier tells her side of the story. The Parmachene Belle The Maine hunting guide who loved Annie Oakley offers a lesson on fly fishing. Harriet Tubman Visits a Therapist Radical activism meets one-day-at-a-time therapism in a fight-to-the-death. Artemisia and Hildegard Two of the most powerful women artists in history square off on a volatile panel about strategies for survival.
