Correct Answer:
B. Saint Joan
Explanation:
The correct answer is Saint Joan. This line appears in George Bernard Shaw's 1923 play Saint Joan, which dramatizes the life of Joan of Arc. In the play's preface and dialogue, Joan is described as being "inspired but diabolically inspired" by those who viewed her claims of divine guidance as heretical or dangerous. Shaw uses this description to highlight the conflict between Joan's personal spiritual conviction and the established authority of the Church and State, which ultimately led to her trial and execution.
