Destreza
&gt; [The sword fighting technique&#x27;s] precepts are based on reason, geometry, and tied to intellectual, philosophical, and moral ideals, incorporating various aspects of a well-rounded Renaissance humanist education, with a special focus on the writings of classical authors such as Aristotle, Euclid, and Plato.<p>Is there a specific term for the way people like to romanticize martial arts? I don&#x27;t mean this to be dismissive of &quot;Destreza&quot; - I&#x27;ve only just learned of it - but I find it to be a common theme that people associate all sorts of strange fantasies around how best to hurt other humans. From the way people compare martial arts styles and the practitioners thereof, to the way guns are talked about, it seems a distinct phenomenon.
