Foundational Neapolitan treatise by Rosaroll Scorza and Pietro Grisetti. Gelli praises it as the last major Italian fencing treatise before Enrichetti, Radaelli, and Masiello, while also criticizing its guard, speed, weapon-tying practice, pommel blows, and quasi-wrestling elements.
Castle also records the Milan 1803 Rosaroll Scorza and Grisetti witness with ten lithographed plates.
Vigeant 1882 describes the Rosaroll and Grisetti treatise as a vast and formula-heavy exposition of sword theory, difficult to follow in its calculations, yet still foundational for the later Neapolitan school.
Distinct from the unrelated homonymous works by Paolo De Scalzi (1835) and Blasco Florio (1844).
