Lo Schermo ("On Defense") is an Italian fencing manual written by Angelo Viggiani dal Montone and published by his brother Battista in 1575. It treats the use of the side sword after the Bolognese fashion.
Contents
Publication History
According to the preface, the Viggiani's dying wish to his brother was that his treatise, completed in 1551, not be published for at least fifteen years. His brother complied, and a presentation manuscript was gifted to Maximilian II (1527-1576) in 1567.
The first published edition was released in 1575, printed in Venice by Giorgio Angelieri. Unsold copies were later acquired by Zacharia Cavalcabo; the title page and introductions by both Viggiani brothers were removed from these copies, and he replaced them with a new title page and his own dedication to Count Pirro Malvezzi.[1] This new introduction was printed in Bologna by Giovanni Rossi.
In 2017, Jherek Swanger self-published an English translation of selections of the book under the title The Fencing Method of Angelo Viggiani: Lo Schermo, Part III. A second English edition by Tom Leoni followed in 2019, titled Angelo Viggiani: Lo Schermo (Book III, English Translation).
