Revision as of 16:22, 9 July 2014
The MS B.26 is a German manuscript created by Ludwig VI von Eyb zum Hartenstein in or around 1500.[citation needed] The original currently rests in the holdings of the Universitätsbibliothek Erlangen-Nürnberg in Erlangen, Germany. It is dedicated to Philip "the Upright" (1448-1508), Elector Palatine of the Rhine. This manuscript is a compilation text and is of particular interest because, in addition to a copy of Konrad Kyeser's famous treatise on siege warfare Bellifortis, it contains an extensive treatment of fencing consistent with the Blume des Kampfes manuscript group (along with the Cod. 5278 and 10799), a series of Germanic manuscripts that roughly parallel the writings of Fiore de'i Liberi.

But now, because of the requirement of Lords, Princes and Counts, free knights and indentured, who are inclined upon the good things of the knightly nobility, they will find that I, Sir Ludwig von Eyb zum Hartenstein, during the period of 11 years in the service of the illustrious high-born Prince and Lord, Sir Philip Count Palatinate of the Rhine, Duke of Bavaria, of the Holy Roman Empire, diocese of the Elector of Amberg, have made this Warbook and brought these together from many other places and lands and offer in a single document, thereby each may take something of an understanding of Warfare. In the year of Our Lord 1500 and 11 years.
