Opera Nova ("A New Work") is a Bolognese fencing manual written by Antonio Manciolino and printed in ca. 1523,[1] and possibly the earliest printed Italian fencing treatise. This treatise is important as it is the earliest work currently known from the Dardi (Bolognese) style of Italian swordsmanship.
Contents
Publication History
Opera Nova was printed in Venice in 1531 by Nicolo d’Aristotile detto Zoppino. Based on historical details in the text, it seems to have been written in 1523, and thus an earlier edition may have been printed around that time; no copies of the original manuscript or any print editions prior to 1531 are known to exist.[1]
The first modern Italian translation was released in 2008; this was followed by a new edition of the original text published in 2009 by Steven Reich. In 2010, Manciolino's treatise was translated into English and published by Tommasso Leoni.
