Francisco Lorenz de Rada (1660 – 1713) es el \u00faltimo gran autor — y talvez el mayor — de la Verdadera Destreza, corrigiendo y elaborando sobre los trabajos de Carranza, Pacheco y Ettenhard. Fue militar, Caballero de la Orden de Santiago, Gobernador de Veracruz y, eventualmente, nombrado Marqu\u00e9s de las Torres de Rada. Estudi\u00f3 la Verdadera Destreza desde los catorce a\u00f1os y fue maestro de esgrima y un autor prol\u00edfico y exhaustivo. Su opera magna, \u00abNobleza de la Espada\u00bb (1705), es un compendio en tres libros de m\u00e1s de 1300 p\u00e1ginas donde construye, partiendo de elementos matem\u00e1ticos y teol\u00f3gicos, un sistema geom\u00e9trico y racionalista para el uso de la espada ropera.<\/p>\n
Esta obra, Crisol<\/em>, es en cierta medida un precedente de Nobleza<\/em>, y tambi\u00e9n un estadio previo en la evoluci\u00f3n te\u00f3rica y pr\u00e1ctica de su autor, en tr\u00e1nsito desde el pachequismo a su propia expresi\u00f3n. Hay muchas partes que se encuentran reproducidas casi literalmente en Nobleza<\/em>, pero en Crisol<\/em> se sigue un esquema m\u00e1s convencional y similar a otras obras de Destreza en que se describe el atajo de una forma gen\u00e9rica (aunque se establecen distinciones entre un lado y otro) y a continuaci\u00f3n las tretas generales como procedimientos operativos para practicar la Destreza, terminando con una secci\u00f3n dedicada a contrarrestar la esgrima italiana (que se incrementa notablemente en su gran obra final).<\/p>\n Esta edici\u00f3n tiene gran valor, ya que los dos \u00fanicos ejemplares del Crisol<\/em> que se conservan est\u00e1n incompletos. El texto que presentamos se trata utiliza ambas fuentes para reconstituir la obra como debi\u00f3 existir.<\/p>\n Hemos tambi\u00e9n replicado de forma cuidadosa y (en alg\u00fan caso, siguiendo las indicaciones del propio Rada) corregido los 25 diagramas que acompa\u00f1an al texto, que presentamos en nuestra edici\u00f3n como l\u00e1minas desplegables.<\/p>\n En conjunto, esta obra es una pieza fundamental para cualquier estudioso de la Verdadera Destreza, que dif\u00edcilmente encontrar\u00e1 un trabajo mas exhaustivo o preciso en una edici\u00f3n moderna.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":4678,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}}},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[57],"product_tag":[225,226,64,59],"class_list":["post-4624","product","type-product","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","product_cat-classica","product_tag-francisco-lorenz-de-rada","product_tag-rada","product_tag-verdadeira-destreza","product_tag-xvii","desktop-align-left","tablet-align-left","mobile-align-left","first","outofstock","shipping-taxable","purchasable","product-type-simple"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/agea.campusconexion.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/4624","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/agea.campusconexion.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/agea.campusconexion.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/agea.campusconexion.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4624"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/agea.campusconexion.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/4678"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/agea.campusconexion.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4624"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/agea.campusconexion.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=4624"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/agea.campusconexion.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=4624"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/agea.campusconexion.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=4624"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
