The title of this article contains the character ö. Where it is unavailable or not desired, the name may be represented as Hans Wilhelm Schoeffer von Dietz.
Hans Wilhelm Schöffer von Dietz was a 17th century German Freifechter. The "von" in his name is not an Adelsprädikat but most likely indicates his city of birth (Diez an der Lahn). A printer by trade and training, he served as a "Mantenitore" (Vorfechter or teaching assistant) to Salvator Fabris, most likely in Denmark. After returning to his home, he went on to become fencing master at the Philipps-Universität Marburg, and later in his life he seems to have accepted an appointment to the Ritterakademie in Sorø, Denmark.[1]
In 1611, Schöffer wrote a two-volume treatise on fencing with the single rapier and with rapier and dagger (MS germ.qu.1190/1191), based on the teachings of Salvator Fabris. This treatise survives in several manuscripts and was ultimately published in 1620 as a single volume entitled Grůndtliche vñ eigentlichte Beschreibung der Fechtkunst ("A Thorough and Proper Description of the Art of Fencing"). More than a simple translation or plagiarism, the treatise represents considerable expansion and interpretation of the Italian master's art.
