Bushido: The Soul of Japan

Sinopsis

Bushidō, the unwritten codes governing the lives and conduct of the samurai, is one of the cornerstones of Japanese culture. Drawn from Buddhism, Shintōism, and Confucianism, and incorporating the knightly ideals of rectitude, courage, benevolence, politeness, sincerity, honor and the loyalty of the samurai, Bushidō continues to influence every level of Japanese society. In this book Nitobe Inazō writes with a fluid, poetic English style influenced by his Quaker philosophy.
