Bushido, The Soul Of Japan: With An Exposition Of Japanese Thought is a book written by Inazo Nitobe, a Japanese philosopher and educator. The book explores the concept of Bushido, the code of conduct followed by the samurai warriors of Japan. Nitobe provides an in-depth analysis of the seven virtues of Bushido, including rectitude, courage, benevolence, respect, honesty, honor, and loyalty. He also examines the historical and cultural context of Bushido, tracing its origins to the feudal era of Japan. In addition to discussing Bushido, Nitobe also provides an exposition of Japanese thought and philosophy. He explores the influence of Confucianism, Buddhism, and Shintoism on Japanese culture and society, and how these beliefs have shaped the Japanese mindset. Nitobe also examines the role of the emperor, the samurai class, and the common people in Japanese society, providing a comprehensive overview of the country's history and culture.Overall, Bushido, The Soul Of Japan: With An Exposition Of Japanese Thought is a seminal work on Japanese culture and philosophy. Nitobe's insights into the samurai code of conduct and Japanese thought have had a lasting impact on Western perceptions of Japan and its people. The book remains a classic in the field of Japanese studies and is essential reading for anyone interested in understanding the country's history and culture.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
