CLASSICAL HORSEMANSHIP
2005 "Inner Horseman" Back Issue
The main theme of this issue is a review of Classical Horsemanship as it was really practiced in 16th through 18th-century Europe. Don't let what they say over the loudspeaker at dressage shows fool you -- modern competitive dressage is not very similar to the haute ecole of 18th or 17th century Europe. Have a look at this volume and find out what REALLY went on!
This disk contains many authentic details of the bitting and "bitting rigs" that trainers in Europe's royal courts actually used 300 years ago, as well as the many maneuvers they practiced which modern competitive dressage excludes. Complete technical analysis of bitting methods, gaits, and movements as shown in the Baron Reis d'Eisenberg's and other major works (Pluvinel, Grisone, Cavendish, LaGueriniere, etc.) and information as to how you can obtain copies of these classic works for inclusion in your own library. Includes a visual tour of the 18th-Century English riding school belonging to the Earl of Pembroke at the Wilton House estates.
The volume also contains a feature report on the Evolution of the Horse with a gorgeous virtual tour of horse exhibits in the world's greatest Natural History museums, where these institutions are located, and where you can go visit them.
