Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Mounted encounters by armored knights locked in desperate handtohand combat, stabbing and wrestling in tavern brawls, deceits and brutalities in street affrays, balletic homicide on the dueling fieldthese were the martial arts of Renaissance Europe. In this extensively illustrated book Sydney Anglo, a leading historian of the Renaissance and its symbolism, provides the first complete study of the martial arts from the late fifteenth to the late seventeenth century. He explains the significance of martial arts in Renaissance education and everyday life and offers a full account of the social implications of onetoone combat training.Like the martial arts of Eastern societies, ritualized combat in the West was linked to contemporary social and scientific concerns, Anglo shows. During the Renaissance, physical exercise was regarded as central to the education of knights and gentlemen. Soldiers wielded a variety of weapons on the battlefield, and it was normal for civilians to carry swords and know how to use them. In schools across the continent, professional mastersofarms taught the skills necessary to survive in a society where violence was endemic and life cheap. Anglo draws on a wealth of evidencefrom detailed treatises and sketches by jobbing artists to magnificent images by Drer and Cranach and descriptions of real combat, weapons and armorto reconstruct and illustrate the arts taught by these ancient mastersatarms.
