offered a position at the School, where he worked for more than twelve years with great success.  His appointment as the first trainer of an Australian Olympic Equestrian team in 1955 was the

in Scotland.  The Lochs established a small dressage school at Quinta das Esporas, near Loule and later moved it to England.  The Lusitano Stud and Equitation Centre was founded near Lord Loch's old Suffolk home at Stoke by Clare and was the first classical academy of its kind in the UK.  After Lord Loch's death, Sylvia founded the Lusitano Breed Society of Great Britain and became involved in writing to spread the word outside the Peninsula about the wonderful horses her late husband had loved so much.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book, which contains some interesting biographical

From 1834 to 1842 he directed a private manège in Magdeburg, and then returned to Berlin to work again with Seeger. In 1849 Steinbrecht took over as director of Seeger's manège and began work on a book on horsemanship. In 1859 he acquired his own manège in Dessau, but returned once again to Berlin in 1865, where he continued to train horses almost until his death.

Trained in haute école by his relative, the former écuyer of the Portuguese Royal House, Joaquim Gonçalves de Miranda, he decided at an early age to devote himself to the equestrian art and soon acquired a great reputation in Portugal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe articles he wrote in the 1950s, are succinct, most around 1000 words long, never start from a lofty view of horse riding. Most of these early writings are models of that great equestrian intelligence which was one of the hallmarks of his personality. Until now, they were neither collected in a single volume nor fully translated into English.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSome of the articles were included in two books, one in Portuguese in 1955, entitled Breves notas sobre uma arte apaixonante (a equitação), and the other in France in 1965 called Réflexions sur l’art équestre, a partial translation by René Bacharach. Neither of these previous books included all 60 articles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Portuguese book did not include some of the early articles, and obviously not those that were written later, from the end of 1955 and in 1956. Even though, many of these are of great interest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs for the French book, it did not contain all of the material either, even if it made extensive use of all the articles up to the end of 1956. But it omitted a certain number of texts , and largely reorganized those that were retained, sometimes distorting the meaning.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJean Magnan de Bornier, a student of Nuno Oliveira's, took on the project of offering French readers an integrated version of these texts, giving them the opportunity to appreciate these writings which are still current and incredibly, have been dormant for sixty years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eXenophon Press has worked carefully with Nuno Oliveira's daughter, Pureza Oliveira and with key bilingual students to complete the English translation from the original Portuguese texts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe articles address a wide variety of topics including, for example, diagonal and lateral effects, the fine tuning of aids, the horse's memory, etc. These articles 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe present here for the first time ever, a complete and new English translation of these 60 articles, embellished with photographs of the same years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTogether with the companion volume to this book, Equestrian Art: The Collected Later Works by Master Nuno Oliveira (Collector's Edition), we now present, for the first time in English, in a set of two volumes, the complete written works of one of the greatest equestrian masters of the twentieth century.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMaster 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 discipline and its history but also an outstanding teacher and mentor, an instructor with unusual intelligence and a highly developed equestrian feeling, an unrivaled artist in the saddle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHis great genius consisted of the comprehensive synthesis of the two emerging but up until then, contrary schools of the Old French riding masters as represented by the teachings of Francois Robichon de la Guérinière (of the 18th century) and Francois Baucher (of the 19th century). What made Oliveira stand out was his unwavering, unprejudiced pragmatism, which let him find the best method from all of the schools for working on a specific goal with a specific horse at a specific moment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHe believed that every single horse had to be trained to the highest degree of perfection and shine within the scope of its individual possibilities. He rose above any doctrinal dispute and focused on the task at hand. A rider should not only ride but also observe, study, read and think carefully. He\/she should act rationally and calmly, never act brutally or with force; he should have love of the horse and develop great equestrian feeling, the greatest of all equestrian virtues.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo achieve this, he taught with the messages of Etienne Beudant and Faverot de Kerbrech: \"Ask often, be satisfied with a little, and reward often.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFrom the table of contents, the complete list of articles:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePreface by Luís Valença         \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1 Relaxation                  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e2 Equestrian Digressions                \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e3 The Ramemer                       \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e4 How to Solve Some Training Difficulties   \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e5 Impulsion in the High School Horse       \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e6 Teaching Methods                    \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e7 Brief Notes on the History of Equitation    \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e8 Breaking-in the Young Horse            \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e9 The Rider’s Position                    \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e10 Questions on Canter                \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e11 Working the Horse In-hand            \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e12 Horses that I Will Never Forget            \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e13 Flying Changes                    \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e14 The Reading of Riding Treatises            \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e15 Funeral Feet: Two Conflicting Opinions    \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e16 Equestrian Tact                     \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e17 Passage and Piaffe: 2 Photographs, 50 Years Apart            \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e18 Piaffe                            \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e19 The Shoulder-in and the Half-pass        \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e20 Artificial Airs and the Circus            \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e21 The Spanish Walk                    \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e22 The Brilliance of the Horse and the Correctness of the Rider        \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e23 Is it Worth it?
