An Essay on Theoretical-Practical of Stick Fencing. With method to defending
against several other cutting or thrusting weapons by Giuseppe Cerri,
Milan, 1854 edited and commented by Messer "Scossa" Gianluca Zannini. Edition bilingual Italian and English. An
expert scholar in the martial fencing, military and civil, trained in
the great mlanese school in a pre and post unification period, Master
Giuseppe Cerri - with his masterpiece - defines himself as the head
master of the Italian tick fencing literature of his period. He shows,
using wonderful artwork, the acadmic fencing gymnastic of the two handed
stick, codyfing dozens of sequences of molinelli. The essay is
completed with useful instructions on lessons for the assalto (bout) for
the fight against one opponent, but also against multiple opponents and
against a variaety of other weapons, including farming tools of that
time. The modern fencer, historical or olympic, will find in this work a
useful pedagogical tool to complete the study of the walking stick or
the saber, preparatory in the practice of the medieval two handed sword,
and finally a useful investigation in the stufy of the typical dynamics
of self defence. Note: Shipping on orders that only include books is reduced after you place your order. See Shipping tab for more information.
