Ten Medieval Warrior Women
While Joan of Arc is well-known as a woman who was involved in medieval warfare, there are many more examples of women who took up arms or commanded armies during the Middle Ages. Here is our list of ten medieval warrior women. There are many women who could be included on this list, including ones who defended castles or commanded forces. Some sources about women in medieval warfare: Susan Abernethy, The Siege of Beauvais in 1472 Mary Elizabeth Ailes, “Camp Followers, Sutlers, and Soldiers’ Wives: Women in Early Modern Armies (c. 1450–c. 1650)”, A Companion to Women’s Military History (Brill, 2012) James Blythe, “Women in the Military: Scholastic Arguments and Medieval Images of Female Warriors,” History of Political Thought, Vol. 22:2 (2001) Kelly DeVries, “The Use of Gunpowder Weaponry by and Against Joan of Arc During the Hundred Years War“, War and Society, Vol.14 (1996) Val Eads, “Sichelgaita of Salerno: Amazon or Trophy Wife?

Herodotus Timemap
Book 1, Ch. 1 This is the display of the inquiry of Herodotus of Halicarnassus, so that things done by man not be forgotten in time, and that great and marvelous deeds, some displayed by the Hellenes, some by the barbarians, not lose their glory, including among others what was the cause of their waging war on each other.The Persian learned men say that the Phoenicians were the cause of the dispute. These (they say) came to our seas from the sea which is called Red, and having settled in the country which they still occupy, at once began to make long voyages. Among other places to which they carried Egyptian and Assyrian merchandise, they came to Argos,which was at that time preeminent in every way among the people of what is now called Hellas.

French World War I Posters
About This web site presents digitized versions of 105 posters published in France during the First World War, representing a time of national volatility and a visual culture of lithography, illustrations, posters, and paintings. The original posters are housed in the University of Illinois Archives. Repairs and encapsulation were accomplished prior to 2001 using funds provided by a gift of Marian H. World War I inspired Europe's second "poster craze," or affichomania, in a span of fifty years. The posters collected here represent a landmark in poster history, because World War I saw the first large-scale use of posters for political purposes. These posters were issued by a variety of institutions and organizations such as the French War Ministry, French and British banks, the American Red Cross, YMCA Union Franco-Americaine, Comite Nationale de Prevoyance et d'Economies, and associations Francaise contre la Propagande Ennemie.
