Description: Okinawan Samurai by Andreas Quast, Naoki Motobu, Chokushiki Pechin Aka/Ota, Chokushiki Pechin Aka Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description Troubled about the future of his only son and heir, a royal government official of the Ryukyu Kingdom wrote down his Instructions as a code of practice for all affairs. Written in flowing, elegant Japanese, he refers to a wide spectrum of artistic accomplishments that the royal government officials were ought to study in those days, such as court etiquette, literature and poetry, music, calligraphy, the tea ceremony and so on. The author, who achieved a remarkable skill level in wielding both the pen and the sword, also informs us about various martial arts practiced in those days. Translated from Japanese for the first time, from centuries-long puzzling seclusion the state of affairs surrounding an 18th century Okinawan samurai vividly resurrects in what is considered Okinawas most distinguished literature.
