From 1951 to 1956, Nuno Oliveira wrote sixty articles concerning horses and riding for two Portuguese magazines. At the time, Nuno Oliveira was in his thirties, yet he was already an accomplished rider, with vast experience. Trained in Haute ???cole by his relative, the former ???cuyer of the Portuguese Royal House, Joaquim Gon???alves de Miranda, he decided at an early age to devote himself to the equestrian art and soon acquired a great reputation in Portugal. Xenophon Press has worked carefully with Nuno Oliveira's daughter, Pureza Oliveira and with key bilingual students of Oliveira to complete the English translation from the original Portuguese texts. The articles address a wide variety of topics. They are true gems of equestrian literature, testifying to the immense capacity for synthesis that Oliveira demonstrated with regard to the theoretical debates of the discipline. We present here for the rst time ever, a complete and new English translation of these 60 articles, embellished with photographs of the same years including all of the images from his publication Haute ???cole. Together with the companion volume to this book, Equestrian Art: The Collected Later Works by Master Nuno Oliveira (Collector's Edition), for the rst time in English, in a set of two volumes, the complete written works of one of the greatest equestrian masters of the twentieth century. Master Nuno Oliveira is considered to be one of the leading figures (if not the leading figure) in the Equestrian Art of the 20th century. He was not only an expert in the art of horsemanship and its history but also an outstanding teacher and mentor, an instructor with unusual intelligence and a highly developed equestrian feeling, and an unrivaled artist in the saddle. See Xenophon Press for a complete list of the 60 articles.
