Guillaume Erard was a priest who took part in the trial of Jeanne d'Arc and was responsible for her forced abjuration.
Biography[edit | edit source]
On 24 May 1431, Erard prefaced Jeanne's sentencing with a sermon where he railed against both Jeanne and Charles VII of France calling them heretics, among other insults. Erard had a fellow clergy member hand Jeanne a letter of abjuration—a statement forcing her to swear never to cut her hair short, don men’s clothing, or take up arms again—in return for her surrendering into the church's custody. When Jeanne asked that the clerks read the document out loud for her, Erard yelled at her, threatening her with immediate execution by fire, though the young clergyman that had handed her the letter ignored the priest and read it for Jeanne.[1]
