    mi permetto una correzione etimologica, anche per chi guarda il video. Nei primi minuti del video viene detto: "dall'oriente, quindi dalle arti marziali". Il punto è proprio che però le arti marziali non sono solo orientali. Già per marziale, ci si riferisce a Marte, dio della guerra.

    • @Maestro.A.Tosoni
      @Maestro.A.Tosoni 3 місяці тому

      Buongiorno, una correzione giusta, in parte...il termine marziale è di derivazione latina, legato al dio della guerra, ma il concetto di Arti Marziali no, è un concetto e un termine moderno, non utilizzato in passato, e nasce per racchiudere l'insieme di quelle discipline di combattimento e difesa personale che arrivano dall'oriente (cfr. a questo proposito l'Enciclopedia Treccani). Poi è innegabile che negli ultimi anni, con la riscoperta delle nostre discipline del passato, si sia iniziato a denominare arti marziali occidentali quelle discipline, appunto per distinguerle da quelle orientali.

    This is great for fencers and nerds, but I believe Fiore's life story would be a good material for a full scale movie. I mean, way of a young talented swordsman through his training, journeys, quarrels with other masters ... all in captivating middle-ages ... We don't have much movies like that. And much of the story is not known, so there is a place for making it more thrilling for normal moviegoer. You can add some politics, love or whatever.

    • @amproductionsitalia
      @amproductionsitalia 10 місяців тому

      That would be absolutely fantastic! There is indeed so much potential for a longer format. Unfortunately, the budget for this short film was already extremely limited and we had to stretch it very thin even to make this ten minute short. To pull off a full scale film, a major studio would have to back it, and our accuracy-oriented philosophy goes drastically against the idea that most major film studios unfortunately seem to have of the Middle Ages. Still, we’d love to expand on the idea, and we are already planning more Fiore-related content. Ultimately it will depend on financial support and resources.

    This just showed up in my feed this month after studying HEMA by myself in the USA. I was introduced to him through a colleague at work who happens to be from Rome! I have a copy of Fiore's book, I made my own sword out of wood, and I practice every week at a local club. It's also been a huge help in my journey losing 70 pounds. This was really inspiring to me because I not only study swordfighting, but also 3D animation. I would love to make a Fiori style swordfight one day!
