"In Madrid there was even at least one maestro during the 17th century who taught both fencing and dancing; namely, Antonio Juste Jubet, maestro de armas y de danzar." Maurice Esses, Dance and Instrumenal Diferencias in Spain during the 17th and Early 18th Centuries, Volume I (1992) p. 518. I can't help but notice the similarity to the Don Antonio Yuste "Iuer" at the back of Ettenhard (1675), especially since I'm not sure of the form of the second surname Esses uses. He cites his source, but doesn't reproduce it, and what I'm looking at in the printed edition could be a typographical error. Could someone shed some light on this? Also, do we know the whereabouts of something Don Antonio Yuste might have written other than what appears in the back of Ettenhard? He has some of the most profound insights into la Verdadera Destreza that I think I've read. I would like to read more, if something is known to exist. (He does promise a forthcoming treatise, so it is not unreasonable to suppose that a manuscript might exist.)
