Okinawan Samurai: The Instructions of a Royal Official to his Only Son (Ryukyu Bugei - Ancient Martial Arts of the Ryukyu Islands Book 1) (English Edition) Kindle-editie

4,5 4,5 van 5 sterren 29 beoordelingen

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 ‘Okinawa’s most distinguished literature.’

    5,0 van 5 sterren Scholarly, readable addition to the study of Early Modern Okinawa.
    Beoordeeld in de Verenigde Staten op 14 mei 2018
    This book is a valuable addition to the regrettably sparse collection of works related to the Ryukyu Kingdom during the Tokugawa period. The main document in this study is a letter from a court official to his son describing the virtues that a good samurai should demonstrate. This text has been translated from Classical Japanese and rendered quite clearly into English.

    Quast's analysis, which makes up the remaining two thirds of this work, are where the transition from mere scholarship to new research occurs. Using direct examples from the text, as well as references to contemporary documents, the author demonstrates how the Samurai fit into the complex group of courtiers surrounding the Okinawan king. Quast also deacribes the role of palace officials in the labyrinthine relations between Okinawa and its Satsuma overlords in regards to the trade relation of the Ryukyu kingdom and China.

    The author writes from the viewpoint of a karate practitioner, and therefore also describes the role unarmed combat may have played in the lives of Okinawan officials. A sharp distinction is drawn between imported Satsuma fighting schools and what may be references to a karate like fighting system referred to as Karamuto.

    Overall this is a fine addition to the library of anyone interested in the social and institutional history of the Ryukyu archipelago in the period before the opening of Japan in the 19th Century. Mr. Quast has produced a work that is not just readable, but in fact enjoyable, and suited to both specialists and non-specialists. I look forward to seeing what he accomplishes next.

    5,0 van 5 sterren Einblicke in den Dienst der damaligen Zeit
    Beoordeeld in Duitsland op 3 juli 2018
    Was war den Beamten des Königreiches Ryukyu wichtig? Wie sollte eine zielgerichtete Erziehung und Ausbildung für den Dienst im Königreich gestaltet sein? Welche Schwerpunkte sollte man setzen? Welche Literatur ist empfehlenswert? Wie sollte man sich benehmen? ...

    Hintergründe und Ratschläge an die nachfolgende Generation, aus der Zeit des Königreiches Ryukyu, wurden für dieses Buch ins Englische übersetzt und kommentiert. Empfehlenswert für Kampfkünstler (mit Okinawa-Bezug, Karate, Kobudo, ...) mit geschichtlichem Interesse.

    Beoordeeld in de Verenigde Staten op 18 juni 2018
    Mr. Andreas Quastʼs revives Ryukyu Martial Art history for us. “Okinawan Samurai” is a unique meticulous work. The detailed information is evident and familiar to us from previous works of Andreas Quest. The author takes us to a guided tour among the districts of Naha and its bureaus, and gives us a tangible experience. For those who love Karate and interested to further dig into Karate history from both informative and daily being point of views, it is an important book. Mr.Quast brings us the opportunity to feel the environmental reality in Naha before the Local-di received its present name (“Karate”) and form. Personality, from my point of views as karate lover and as a karate researcher, I consider this precious work invaluable. It is most interesting worthy book. Highly recommended!

    Beoordeeld in de Verenigde Staten op 21 juni 2018
    Another great book on traditional Okinawan life from a past era from Andreas Quast. I have never regretted buying a single one of his tomes, of which I have them all. Andreas is a researcher who double checks and rechecks his work before releasing it. A very astute and reliable person, luckily for us, interested in Okinawan culture.
