'''Francesco Fernando Alfieri''' was a [[century::17th century]] [[nationality::Italian]] [[fencing master]]. Little is known about his life, but Alfieri means "bannerman" which, considering the subjects of his books, might be a military title rather than an inherited surname. In his fencing treatise of 1640, he identifies himself as a master-at-arms to the Accademia Delia in Padua, and indicates that he had long experience at that time.

Notable work(s)

Francesco Fernando Alfieri was a 17th century Italian fencing master. Little is known about his life, but Alfieri means "bannerman" which, considering the subjects of his books, might be a military title rather than an inherited surname. In his fencing treatise of 1640, he identifies himself as a master-at-arms to the Accademia Delia in Padua, and indicates that he had long experience at that time.

Between 1638 and 1653, he produced four treatises, covering drill with the flag and pike and fencing with the rapier and spadone.
