spanish and portuguese manuals

It isn't correct that destreza treatises doesn't include explanations on the techniques, although, with exceptions, they use very few images and have a difficult terminology even for spanish speakers, together with mathematical demonstrations and philosophical musings (generally in separated chapters). I have added a list of some of the most relevant Portuguese and Spanish treatises. There are other tournament/jousting manuals, but I don't have the references at hand. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.127.200.126 (talk) 01:56, 8 April 2008 (UTC)

uninfluenced

"largely uninfluenced by Liechtenauer."

This is disputed by some. I don't know myself either way, but does anyone feel strongly about putting a qualifier on this? Sethwoodworth 03:58, 15 February 2006 (UTC)

Revert of name change

This article uses a German title (while there is an English variant) and uses French and Italian translations in the article as well. Why did Matthead (talk · contribs) revert my move to an English title?Rex 10:29, 24 December 2006 (UTC)

because "Fechtbuch" is the term used in English. "Combat Manual" is just a literal translation, but nobody will know what you are talking about if you begin discussing "combat manuals". An understandable English title would have to be something like "Late Medieval to Early Modern European Fencing and Combat Manual", or, for short, "Fechtbuch". dab (𒁳) 10:34, 24 December 2006 (UTC)

No ... Fechtbuch was not found in the Cambridge Advanced Learner's Dictionary. So that's not correct. I looked at some of the English links and they call it "fencing manuals" so I'd say that's the one to go with. But then there's that other thing. This article also mentions the Italian and French names, why use the german one instead?Rex 10:37, 24 December 2006 (UTC)

"Advanced Learner's"? Do you find Mordhau there? Or Sinterklaas? "fencing manual" is arguable, but not precise, since the books describe all sorts of armed and unarmed combat, not just fencing. You are just on your usual "remove German words from Wikipedia" prowl, Rex. dab (𒁳) 11:00, 26 December 2006 (UTC)

Sadly, Rex is on a anti-German prowl. He will not find easy prey, though.-- Matthead ^discuß!     O       21:02, 26 December 2006 (UTC)

AFAIK, Sinterklaas isn't a part of the English languagfe, but simply a barbarism. Fencing manual I think is the way to go. (And to repeat one of my questions; this article also mentions the Italian and French names, why use the german one instead?) As for my usual prowl. I can't help it German speakers have this odd habit of putting in German terms (wether out of or within bars) in English texts, I mean, one translation or so will suffice, for the rest I believe they've gotten their own wiki.Rex 11:05, 26 December 2006 (UTC)

"German speakers" are busy replacing German terms with English ones these days. But you seem to be unaware of the English language's susceptibility to German influence being second to that to French influence only. To the point, the English language expert discussion forum on this topic is forums.swordforum.com. Google counts 555 hits for "fechtbuch" vs. 81 hits for "fencing manual" on there. That is a rather fair estimate of the terms' notability, and the reason why we keep the article titled as it is. This is a specialist subject, with specialist terminology. This isn't the article on manuals on fencing in general, but on specific class of pre-modern texts; arguably, the 18th century examples shouldn't even be listed here. If you like, "Fechtbuch" is itself a "barbarism", a technical term from the study of the German school of swordsmanship. The bulk of manuscripts are from this tradition, and you may have a point in noting that the non-German titles should be listed separately, to give context of related schools, and not as "Fechtbuecher". dab (𒁳) 11:27, 26 December 2006 (UTC)

Again you avoid my question I will not ask it a 4th time. Discussion is over until you answer.Rex 22:50, 26 December 2006 (UTC)

`Fechtbuch´ does not signify `Fencingbook´ in early-high-german (Fightbook would be better, because `fechten´ is equal to the medieval understanding of `kämpfen/combatting´ and includes various crafts of singular warfare/feuds etc. like wrestling, fencing an horsed combat skills), so you do not have to use the word instead of `fighting manual´! Besides, do not care about the various dictionaries - paper is patient and never complaints. Anti-german or not: I have red `Fechtbuch´ in several languages and It seems to be a widely spread germanism. A contemporary and therefore scientifical-used term is `technische Literatur zur mittelalterlichen Kampfkunst/technical literature in medieval art of combat´. Excuse my germanized english, I did my best...--139.30.128.57 (talk) 16:29, 16 October 2009 (UTC)

Category clutter

this article is the main article of its own category, which is in turn categorized in the relevant sub-categories; please avoid category-clutter by repeating these here. dab (𒁳) 15:38, 25 February 2007 (UTC)

Only because you have just added those relevanty sub-categories, omitting Illuminated manuscripts, which I will restore here, since it is not appropriate for the whole category. There will probably soon be a new sub-category of category illuminated manuscripts for manuscript fightbooks. All manuscript examples (assuming they all have some illustration, which I imagine they do) should then be categorized in this. Johnbod 16:03, 25 February 2007 (UTC)

what is wrong with you? Quite apart from the "illuminated" thing, a Fechtbuch is not "a manuscript". It is a genre of treatise, and it comes in no fixed format. One or two may be "illuminated", some are illustrated, some are printed, some are just handwritten notes. Your category is completely mistaken here. dab (𒁳) 17:12, 25 February 2007 (UTC)

Possible move proposal

Since the category is most likely going to be renamed as Combat treatises, I wanted to see if editors here would support changing the main article title to reflect this change in categorization.-Andrew c 13:33, 26 April 2007 (UTC)

It may seem illogical, but I don't have strong feelings either way. I have just created a redirect here for "Combat treatise" & will do the same for "Fightbook". The singular form, with no diacritical, and a redirect in place, is ok I feel. At the moment, though covering other nations, the article concentrates on German language works. Johnbod 13:48, 26 April 2007 (UTC)

German Fechtbücher

The German word "fechten" means to 'combat with bladed melee weapons' (i.e. fencing with sword, saber, knife, rapier etc.), while a 'combat book' might include projectil weapon use, tactic manuals or an even broader approach to the "art of war". "historical fencing book" might be a better translation77.180.56.113 (talk) 09:24, 17 February 2012 (UTC)
