I pulled this from an announcement made by Fabrice Cognot.

4th International Historical European Martial Arts Gathering - Dijon 2005

Date: Thurs. April 28 - Sunday, May 1, 2005

http://perso.wanadoo.fr/fcognot/Dijonindex1.htm

On the provisional programme :

- Olivier Dupuis on French XIXth century staff techniques

- Michael Huber on fighting from horseback, from German and Italian sources fo the
XVth century

- Carlo Parisi on Renaissance Dagger after Achille Marozzo and George Silver

- Matt Easton on Fiore dei Liberi - new views on the longsword techniques from this
early XVth century manuscript

- Franck Cinato on ms. I.33 (late XIIIth-Early XIvth century sword-and-buckler techniques)

- Didier de Grenier on short sword/baselard from cgm. 558 (XVe century southern
German/Swiss manuscript)

- Dreynschlag (Austria) on German wrestling in the XVth/XVIth centuries after Dürer,
Von Auerswald and others ; and maybe a workshop on choreographed-and-yet-historical
combat

- Gaëtan Marain on the use of the shield in the late Roman Empire

- Craig Pitt-Pladdy : Marozzo and Machiavelli - fighting with and against polearms.

- James Marwoods : WWII knife fighting, as compared to historical techniques

- Bart Walczak on XVth century dagger from various sources.

And hopefully, others, including Matt Galas, Dave Rawlings, Hans Heim and more..

Tomasso Leoni will be here too - although not really in our period of choice, he's
theone specialist on Salvator Fabris' rapier teachings.

And as special guests : Yannick Epiard, who will lecture on steel : what it is,
how it was worked, what to do with it, and how - so many people want to wield swords
without knowing how they are made..

We are also highly honored to welcome in Dijon Master Armourer Chris Dobson. To
quote him :
"Creating the 'Mirror of Chivalry', Italian Armour Design, Late 14th - Late
15th Century". This allows me to talk about pure Italian design and also Italianate
armour used in Burgundy and other countries. I should be able to bring a few genuine
bits down with me, although not actual 15th Century pieces (too rare) - more 16th
Century ". Chris is responsible for the International Arms and Armour Conferences http://www.international-arms-and-armour-conferences.com/
