Videos in collaboration with the Agorà Fencing Museum
In partnership with the Agorà Fencing Museum (ASD Pro Patria et Libertate, Busto Arsizio), we present a series of eight short videos exploring the intersections between the discipline of fencing and the practice of dueling. Featuring insights from Museum Director Giancarlo Toràn and Curator Elena Merlin, the videos examine diverse thematic areas: from treatises and linguistics—with a focus on fencing terminology that has entered everyday language—to the technical evolution and use of dueling weapons. The series also highlights the legendary athlete Nedo Nadi, drawing upon materials from his personal archive.
