Volume 2 is a <strong>commentary <\/strong>volume, including a complete transcription and translation of the manuscript as well as a wealth of research related to Talhoffer and his works.<\/p>\n<div class=\"menu-item-title\">\n<p class=\"menu-item-description preFade fadeIn\">by Hans Talhoffer and Michael Chidester (editor)<\/p>\n<p class=\"menu-item-description preFade fadeIn\">The Kongelige Bibliotek\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/wiktenauer.com\/wiki\/Talhoffer_Fechtbuch_(MS_Thott.290.2%C2%BA)\" target=\"blank_\">MS Thott.290.2\u00ba<\/a>\u00a0is a German fencing manual commissioned by Hans Talhoffer in 1459. This was our first facsimile, which is now sold out, so to keep the commentary volume useful, we decided to release the scans from the facsimile as a normal book.<\/p>\n<p class=\"menu-item-description preFade fadeIn\">This manuscript, Talhoffer&#8217;s third or fourth, seems to have been a reference book for his personal use. Aside from his own work, this manuscript also includes Liechtenauer&#8217;s\u00a0<em>Zettel<\/em>\u00a0and Konrad Kyeser&#8217;s\u00a0<em>Bellifortis<\/em>. The text is inverted on the final ten folia, and opening the book from the back reveals a brief treatise on a variety of esoteric subjects.<\/p>\n<p class=\"menu-item-description preFade fadeIn\">Talhoffer&#8217;s writings cover a wide assortment of weapons, including the buckler, crossbow, dagger, flail, Messer, longshield, mace, poleaxe, spear, sword, and unarmed grappling, often both armored and unarmored, on horse and on foot, and in scenarios including tournaments, formal duels, and unequal encounters implying urban self-defense.<\/p>\n<p class=\"menu-item-description preFade fadeIn\">Despite the obvious care and detail that went into the artwork, the manuscript generally has only a few words captioning each technique (and in many cases none at all).<\/p>\n<p
