- Synopsis
- This book presents new translations of five classic works on Bushido--the way of the Samurai warrior. These treatises, all authored by the scholar Yamaga Soko or one of his disciples, provide the core ideals and philosophy underlying Samurai conduct and way of life. Together they offer an in-depth, practical guide to building character and leading a proper life according to the precepts of Bushido. Yamaga's writings helped inspire the transformation of the Samurai from a feudal warrior class to become accomplished leaders of intellectual, political, and ethical influence.
