In 1599, the swordmaster Domingo Luis Godinho wrote the Arte de Esgrima, the only fencing manual that preserved the older "Common" or "Vulgar" system of Spanish fencing, which has its traditions in the Middle Ages. 17th-century Spanish destreza is steeped in the Spanish Baroque noblemen mindset, so it does not contain graphical explanations of the fencing techniques so much as hard-to-understand explanations based on mathematics and philosophical sciences in general. The subsequent difficulty on interpreting the theory and practice of correctly has frequently led to this school of fencing being misunderstood.
