Exercitiorum Atque Artis Militaris Collectanea ("Collected Martial Arts and Exercises") is a Spanish fencing manual by Pedro Monte printed in Milan in 1509.[1] Sydney Anglo states that "No master was more comprehensive [in his writings] than Pedro Monte in 1509. He not only deals with wrestling, dagger fighting, the use of long and short lance, two-handed sword and the single-sword on its own or in combination with various types of shield and buckler and cape; he also discusses the various types of pole arm such as the partisan, the ronca, spetum, and halberd. He examines in detail fencing and wrestling on horseback, along with various types of mounted lance combat; treats physical exercises such as running, jumping, and vaulting; provides a little encyclopedia of contemporary arms and armor; and finally places the entire corpus of material within a broader context of the art of war."[2]

Publication History

Monte's Exercitiorum Atque Artis Militaris Collectanea was first published in Milan on 27 July 1509 by Giovani Angelo Scinzenzler.

A Spanish-language manuscript copy also exists (the MS a.IV.23), which may possibly have been Monte's original draft.
