Description
This luxurious gift edition presents Inazo Nitobe''s classic work, The Way of the Samurai, featuring stencilled page edges and full-colour illustrations.To many people, the word samurai conjures images of menacing masks, long blades and elaborate armour. However, this classic text by Inazo Nitobe reveals the greater depths to samurai culture - they were not simply warriors but an aristocratic class who practiced literary and military arts in equal measure.Essential to this way of life was the samurai''s moral code and the quality of bushido, roughly translated as chivalry. The Way of the Samurai provides an intriguing exploration of bushido and other valued qualities such as rectitude or justice, courage, politeness, veracity, honour, loyalty and self-control. It also explores the Samurai''s more violent traditions, such as the chilling act of hara-kiri or self-immolation.This mixture of chivalric principles with brutal warfare is fascinating. While many aspects of Samurai culture have disappeared, its principles still have resonance in modern Japanese society and around the globe.Featuring beautiful full-colour illustrations, this luxurious gold-embossed hardback makes a perfect gift. ABOUT THE SERIES: The Arcturus Luxury Classics series brings together deluxe gift editions of classic works of literature, complete with stencilled page edges, gold embossed cover designs, full-colour illustrations and beautiful patterned endpapers.
