Posthuman Joan' is a recontextualisation of the patron saint Joan of Arc as a potential posthuman heroine in a society where religious influence is obsolete. Her evolving significance over 500 years is examined through posthuman theory and post-anthropocentrism. This research focuses on how her story has transformed across media, exploring her role in a new world where theological voluntarism is abolished, and offering insights into fashion's role in shaping contemporary mythologies.
