    How to use "Fencing" in context?

    Fencing is a sport and a recreational activity with a history of over 1,500 years. It is done with the use of a sword, a small shield, and a large, rectangular, cloth-covered mat. In its current form, fencing as we know it began in the 15th century, with the Renaissance fencer, Fra Bartolomeo. In 1531, he published his book, "The Art of Factorie". In this book, Bartolomeo described the principles of foil fencing, which involved striking with the blade at an opponent's shield.
