The various old and new noble and knightly German forms and Disciplines of jousting or ”tilt”, as they call it nowadays.

Ettliche weilend des Aller durchleuchtig isten hochmechttigisten Fürsten und herren herrn Maximilionn Römischenn Keyserß &c hochloblichister gedächnus Ritterspile zum tail durch fr maiestätt selbß erfunden anngeben unnd sonnst mitt anndern zu lust und kurtz weill gebrãucht werdenn.

Title and dedication

To the eternal memory of the late Roman Emperor Maximilian, I have here gathered these jousting or tilt games, and put them in order. The late emperor Maximilian himself devoted himself and exercized himself in them, and he even invented many of them as well. Therefore lest this honourable and sportly exercise of the nobility would to perish, I have here given them to posterity, especially for the eternal praise to those who still devote themselves and love it, which can be understood here, how to do that they have before their eyes, so that they be able to reconstruct each and everyone of them.

In the third part follows hereby explained how the man and horse is to be equipped in all kinds of jousting of peace and of war and on the battle field, for sport and in ernest, with all equipment and armour, all parts, such as caparisons, saddles, chanfrons, peytrals, barding and weapons, what they may be called, and how they are put on.

Torney on foot in a hall(?). First to break the lances, and then they hit each other with the swords.

Foot tourney is arranged thus: the man is equipped with a full field armour but on his right hand he wears a torney gauntlet, and on his left a plate gauntlet with plate for gripping, on his head a torney helmet with a small mantle. First they attack each other with the lances over the fence. If they break the lances, then thereafter they use their swords, as is shown in the following picture.

Cod.Guelf.1.6.3 Aug.2º 085v.png
Cod.Guelf.1.6.3 Aug.2º 086r.png

Fighting on life and death must be done as follows with a surcoat, arm armour and pauldrons, and helmet or head armour, with full cuisses and greaves, as well as gauntlets and besagews, and also whatever weapons for anyone who wishes not to lose the fight, as can be seen in this following picture.

Here they fight on life and death.

Maximilian Fechtbuch 12.jpg

Cod.Guelf.1.6.3 Aug.2º 062v.png
Cod.Guelf.1.6.3 Aug.2º 063r.png

Jousting either in ernest or for sport, is performed thus: the rider wears an armour that in German is called "den geschifften küriss". The lance has a vamplate. The horse is equipped with a caparison made out of leather. The mane and neck of the horse is covered in steel armour, as well as the chanfron, as the picture clearly shows.

Tourney on horse, both for sport and in ernest is arranged thus: the man is wearing an articulated field armour, the lance has a vamplate, and the horse is wearing an old armour saddle, steel criniere, and leather peytral and croupiere, steel chanfron, and all equipment as is shown in this picture.

How to tourney on horse for sport and in ernest.

This is the right old tournament armour, with all parts and how they are arranged.

Old torney on horse for sport is usually done in this manner: the man is equipped with an old field armour, without leg armour and sabatons, only a pair of boots with soft bootlegs, old shoulders and old arm harness. On the head an old tournament helmet and in with his old tournament gauntlets. On the chest there is a chain that a battle club is hanging from. The man is sitting on an old tournament saddle, and the horse is adorned with an old steel crupier, peytral and flanchards, that are attached to the saddle, as well as old steel peytral and chanfron as the following pictur shows.

Foreign joust of peace over the fence or free jousting with all its equipment.

The new foreign joust of peace over the fence is done as follows: the man has an articulated field armour, and a new helmet for joust of peace, has a grill in front where the hitting is done with the coronell on the lance, also with a large vamplate. He sits on a high armour saddle. The horse is adorned with a silk caparison and a steel chanfron as is shown in the following picture.
