Description
About Peter von Danzig
A completely new translation of the anonymous commentary on the Zedel of Johannes Liechtenauer, forming a 15th century treatise on three subjects: fencing on foot with the longsword, fencing on horseback with lance, sword and dagger, and fencing on foot with lance, sword, and dagger.
The work contains a poetic translation of the Zedel and plain, straightforward translations of the commentaries to provide a smooth reading experience that is perhaps closer to that of reading the original document.
