Regole di moltio cavagliereschi essercitii ("Rules of Many Knightly Exercises") is an Italian fencing manual written by Federico Ghisliero and printed in 1587. It covers the use of the rapier, both single and with secondary weapons, as well as the spear and mounted fencing.

Publication History

Regole di moltio cavagliereschi essercitii was published in Parma, Italy in 1587 by Erasmo Viotto. It is unusual in that the illustrations seem to have been not included in the base book, but rather drawn in by artists after the printing was complete. For this reason, no two copies of the book have precisely the same artwork or the same number of illustrations. It's unclear if Ghisliero intended to have printed illustrations but couldn't afford to commission them, or if the scheme was intentional and buyers paid extra for each illustration added.

A manuscript copy is preserved in the Museo dell'Arte Marziale in Botticino, Italy, which might be the preparatory manuscript used to create the book and the source of the illustrations.
