An account of the rehabilitation of Jeanne d'Arc
Written by Rene Hague
Produced by Douglas Cleverdon
On July 7, 1456, the commission appointed by Pope Calixtus III to examine the trial of Jeanne d'Arc in 1431 pronounced the sentence of rehabilitation which annulled the earlier proceedings. The enquiry, which was based on the written records of 1431 and on the evidence of witnesses who had known Jeanne (including some who had taken part in her trial), was chiefly conducted by the Inquisitor of France, Jean Brehal.

The conversations assembled and introduced by Colin Maclnnes
Art collecting as hobby and investment; the vocation and the trade of the art dealer; the end of demand for Victorian genre painting, the very late acceptance of Impressionism in England, the distaste for Cubism, and the support for ' abstract' and ' neo-realist ' art today; the role of the art dealer in changing taste: these are among the topics discussed by six well-known art dealers.
