Mair and Auerswald

Postby Tom Keesler » Fri May 08, 2009 7:58 am

This may have been known to others already but it was new to me:
I noticed the other day that P. H. Mair's ringen section is, plate for plate, identical to that of Fabian von Auerswald (of which there is a very decent translation online). Just thought I'd put that out there since I haven't found a translation of Mair's ringen.

Do you have a link for an untranslated Mair? I've long been curious about Auerswald, so I have a copy of that somewhere on my desktop.

Are you referring to Paulus Hector Mair's Opus Amplissimum de Arte Athletica 1542 Ringen section?
