Ars Dimicandi about european Reenactment in german news
#23
Not all is lost :-) )

From the article quoted by Robert at http://www.romanarmy.com/rat/viewtopic.php?t=9040 , about Ars Dementicato (;-)):

"Die Kämpfe sind natürlich abgesprochen, alles folgt einem festgelegten Ablauf und ist notgedrungen plakativ. Die Show will unterhalten und das tut sie auch. Endgültig in Hollywood angekommen ist das Spektakel in der Schlusszene, die vom Titelsong des Films „Gladiator“ untermalt wird. Die Show war perfekt, sie hatte nur einen Haken: Ohne Not verkauften die Veranstalter sie als authentisch."

(Of course the fights are choreographed, everything follows a set plan and is inevitably "for effects". The show wants to entertain and so it does. In the final scene the spectacle has at last arrived at Hollywood, accompanied by the titlesong from "Gladiator". [...] The show was perfect, but there's a rub in it: without need the organizers praised it as authentic)

Not all is lost ;-) )
