Deutliche und grůndliche Erklårung der Adelichen und Ritterlichen freyen Fecht-Kunst ("A Clear and Thorough Explanation of the Noble, Chivalric, and Free Art of Fencing") is a German fencing manual written by Jean Daniel L'Ange and initially printed in 1664. It treats the use of the single rapier and seems to fall into the tradition of Salvator Fabris.

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.

In 2014 it was translated into English by Reinier van Noort and published by Fallen Rook Publishing under the title Lessons on the Thrust.
