  • Sword & Spirit
    Sword & Spirit Classical Warrior Traditions of Japan, volume two Edited by Diane Skoss “The true warrior spirit survives. Aficionados of the martial arts will certainly appreciate this second volume… Skoss’ attitude as a serious practitioner and scholar is reflected in her attention to detail: clean editing, a competent index that doubles as a glossary, and inclusion of the most thoughtful writers in the discipline today.” The Japan Times March 30, 1999 Take a look at the martial arts section in your library and you’ll find a huge selection of titles, ranging from the ridiculous to the sublime. What you won’t find is much in the way of accurate information on the authentic fighting traditions of the Japanese samurai. Sword & Spirit, the second volume in the Classical Warrior Traditions of Japan series, fills that gap. The eight essays in this volume include a translation of advice from a warrior to his son; the teachings of a modern instructor of the classical traditions; evaluations of the classical martial arts as combat systems; an outline of the meaning of kata in training; an interview with a master of shurikenjutsu; photos and descriptions of a select group of classical martial arts traditions; and an introduction to a long neglected primary source on the ways of the Japanese warrior. Editor Diane Skoss is well qualified to present this collection. She lived in Japan for more than ten years, researching and training in the classical martial arts. She holds an okuden (highest technical level) license in the classical tradition of Toda-ha Buko-ryu naginatajutsu and is the world’s highest ranked non-Japanese in the modern martial art of jukendo, or way of the bayonet.

Sieber, Munich (Germany) 2 Faculty of Physical Education, University of Rzeszow, Rzeszów (Poland) e-mail: [email protected] Jubilee of Shibu Kobudo in Poland 1995–2015 Submission: 18.03.2015; acceptance: 11.07.2015 Key words: martial arts, Katorishinto-ryu, shibu, activity of the organization Abstract Aim. The aim of the research material was to provide a factual description and explanation of the functioning of the organization of martial arts, according to the 15th century tradition of Japanese fencing. This is Shibu Kobudo that has been operating in Poland for 20 years. A theoretical perspective was used for analysis and reflection and included: the history of physical culture, the soci- ology of culture, the humanistic theory of martial arts and the haplology and anthropology of martial arts. Methods. Analysis of sources and the content of the existing studies and literature on the subject was applied in the manuscript. This includes, among other things content analysis of documents, photographs, popular magazines and direct participation in the events described in this paper. In addition, the authors used the participatory observation method – as they are both participants in and direct observers of the described events. Results. Improved and supplemented factual descriptions (in relation to the subject matter of literature) are presented. The activities of pioneers and leaders, activists, organizers and teachers are set out. This is a particular asset for the classic martial arts (kenjutsu, kobudo) that may attract enthusiasts for the next meeting for practical studies.

    The Intangible Warrior Culture of Japan: Bodily Practices, Mental Attitudes, and Values of the Two-sworded Men from the Fifteenth to the Twenty-first Centuries. Anatoliy Anshin Ph.D. Dissertation UNSW@ADFA 2009 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This thesis would not have seen the light without the help of more people than I can name individually. I am particularly grateful to Professor Stewart Lone, UNSW@ADFA, and Professor Sandra Wilson, Murdoch University, for their guidance and support while supervising my Ph.D. project. All of their comments and remarks helped enormously in making this a better thesis. A number of people in Japan contributed significantly to producing this work. I am indebted to Ōtake Risuke, master teacher of Tenshinshō-den Katori Shintō-ryū, and Kondō Katsuyuki, director of the Main Line Daitō-ryū Aikijūjutsu, for granting interviews and sharing a wealth of valuable material during my research. I thank Professor Shima Yoshitaka, Waseda University, for his generous help and advice. I would like to express my infinite thankfulness to my wife, Yoo Sun Young, for her devotion and patience during the years it took to complete this work. As for the contribution of my mother, Margarita Anshina, no words shall convey the depth of my gratitude to her. 1 CONTENTS Acknowledgements…………..…………………………………………………….……1 Contents…………………………..……………………………………………………...2 List of Illustrations……………………………………………………………………….5 Conventions……………………………………………………………………………...6 List of Author’s Publications…………………………………………………………….8 INTRODUCTION……………………………………………………………………….9

  • Seven Questions to Ōtsuka Ryūnosuke, 7Th Sōke of the Hokushin Ittō-Ryū Hyōhō
    Seven Questions to Ōtsuka Ryūnosuke, 7th Sōke of the Hokushin Ittō-Ryū Hyōhō An Interview with www.hoploblog.de Ōtsuka Ryūnosuke Taira no Masatomo, was born as Lösch Markus in Munich, Germany. He started training taekwondo when he was six years old. Back then, nobody could imagine where his journey would lead him in the future. After his long-time practice of shooting the English-Longbow, he started practicing iaidō in a local dōjō in Munich and later because of his search for a traditional Japanese koryū, he went directly to Japan. There he became the private student (uchi-deshi) of the 6th sōke of the Hokushin Ittō-ryū Hyōhō, Ōtsuka Yōichirō Taira no Masanori, by whom he was later taken on as foster-son. Ōtsuka Yōichirō-Sōke also appointed him as his successor as the 7th sōke of the Hokushin Ittō-ryū Hyōhō at the end of March 2016 and thus put him into charge of the whole school worldwide. Ōtsuka Ryūnosuke became through this the first non-Japanese person who was ever appointed to fully lead a Japanese koryū as headmaster. ~ 1 ~ 1.
