Bound in the original black cloth, stamped in bright gold on the spine. From the dust jacket: "THE CODEX WALLERSTEIN is one of the best known of the late medieval fencing treatises still in existence. Though perhaps not as widely known as TALHOFFER 1467 or FLOS DUELLATORUM, it is just as important to students of the Western martial arts. Originally written in Middle High German during the late 14th and early 15th centuries, THE CODEX WALLERSTEIN has long been available to scholars in microfilm format from Augsburg University. Now for the first time, the text and drawings are available to scholars and martial artists in printed form in the original Middle High German, Modern German, and English translations. The translations were provided by Grzegorz Zabinski, with assistance from Bartlomiej Walczak, two of the most esteemed interpreters of medieval combat in the world. The codex offers a series of fundamental counters to common attacks, using the longsword, falchion and dagger, as well as the complete system of wrestling techniques. In this work the reader will find a great deal of instruction on thrusting at or closing in against an opponent, expanding Master Johannes Liechtenauer's art of longsword combat. For martial artists, medievalists, historians or others with an interest in historical arms or self-defense, this edition of the CODEX WALLERSTEIN is sure to become an invaluable reference."

Description de la boutique

About Books [Genny and Michael Winne, proprietors, formerly of Parsippany, New Jersey) has been selling rare and out of print books since 1985.

Our inventory of more than 40,000 volumes is especially strong in the specialities listed, but contains fine books in a variety of other fields as well. Because most of our books are stored in protective boxes, rather than on shelves, they cannot be viewed as a whole. If you want to examine specific titles, please provide 24 hours notice and we will make them available for your inspection. Phone calls to (702) 750-2722 are welcome, but please only between the hours of 8am and 10pm, west coast time. Our phone is a landline that cannot receive texts.…
