| Summary, etc | For decades, people have been fascinated by the Samurai. Now, with THE LAST SAMURAI, a major film starring Tom Cruise set for release in January 2004, interest in the Samurai will be at its peak. But who are the Samurai? And what is it about the Samurai that sparks such enduring fascination? For more than 700 years Japan was dominated by a military caste - the samurai. To the Western mind these fearsome warriors - the masterless ronin and the assassin ninja - have always been a source of mystery and wonder, combining the idealism of chivalry with military fanaticism. THE WAYS OF THE SAMURAI digs beneath the myth and reveals a truth even more amazing about the men who practiced a discipline drawn from Zen and Confucian ethics - bushido, the way of the warrior. THE WAYS OF THE SAMURAI presents all aspects of a Samurai's life: from training and culture to armour and weapons. |
