Translation: Sword and buckler by Andre Lignitzer

Jan 26, 2021

This is my current translation of the sword and buckler treatise of Andre Lignitzer, working from Dierk Hagedorn’s transcriptions of the versions of the treatise in the Codex 44.A.8 (1452) and the MS Dresd.C.487 (c.1504-19).

Please note that this translation is released under copyright, and that while I am more than happy for people to use it for their own training and study, you must contact me to request permission to use it in any publication or for any commercial use.

I have chosen to leave technical terms untranslated, to avoid imposing any unwanted interpretation or baggage on the terms. However, I realise that some people do prefer to see everything translated, including technical terms, so I have offered suggestions in the footnotes.
