[Answer] 2. HISTORY: Which of the following is a French national heroine and Roman Catholic Saint thanks to her defiant stance against the English in the Hundred Years' War?

Step 1 : Introduction to the question "2. HISTORY: Which of the following is a French national heroine and Roman Catholic Saint thanks to her defiant stance against the English in the Hundred Years' War?"



...1. Boudica 2. Joan of Arc 3. Lady Godiva 4. Lady Gaga Joan of Arc is said to have been a 15th century peasant girl who rose up against the English in a messed up and chaotic France, and who has somehow managed to capture the imagination of historians and folklorists ever since her death at the stake at the hand of the English who captured her. Her adherence to Roman Catholicism has gained her Saint status and she has remained a popular cult figure and symbol of resistance, a theme for which she is acknowledged in a wide range of art forms. Significant references appear in Shakespeare (English literature), Tchaikovsky (Russian music), Mark Twain (American literature), Robert Bresson (French film) and Bertolt Brecht (German theatre). Boudica/Boadicea is thought to have been a (Celtic) British Queen who fought against the Romans, and is a national hero to some. Lady Godiva was an Anglo-Saxon queen who, according to legend, rode naked through the streets of Coventry, to oppose taxes imposed by her husband. The deal was that nobody would see her, but one bloke peeked. His name was Thomas, thus the term "Peeping Tom". I have no idea who Lady Gaga is, what she does, or why people care.
