The Chappon lineage taught the High Tierce system, which gradually came to dominate Hungarian fencing until the end of the nineteenth century. This fencing lineage is immensely important in Austro-Hungarian fencing history: Lajos Chappon himself was fencing-master to not one but two Austrian Archdukes, in addition to numerous other figures of historical significance such as the poet and revolutionary Sándor Petőfi. Additionally, translations of his sons Karoly and Samu round out the evolution of this lineage from the early nineteenth to the turn of the twentieth Century, providing a deep and rich exploration of variations existing within the High Tierce system and how Lajos' sons preserved and adapted different parts of their father's legacy over time as the context and conditions of fencing changed in the Austro-Hungarian Empire.
