Deutliche Erklårung der Fechtkunst ("A Clear Explanation of the Art of Fencing") is a German fencing manual written by Jean Daniel L'Ange and initially printed in 1664. A copy of the 1664 edition is held by the Niedersächsische Staats- und Universitätsbibliothek Göttingen in Göttingen, Germany, and a copy of the 1708 by the Universitäts- und Landesbibliothek Düsseldorf in Düsseldorf, Germany. L'Ange's treatise contains teachings on the use of the rapier and may be based on the earlier work by Nuremberg Freifechter Sebastian Heußler.
Publication History
Deutliche Erklårung der Fechtkunst was first printed in Heidelberg, Germany in 1664 by Adrian Weingarten. The master's son, Charles L'Ange, seems to have renewed printing in 1708 in Düsseldorf, Germay.
