Miyamoto Musashi's Book of Five Rings A Completely New Translation of the Original Japanese Text Miyamoto Musashi, Alex Bennett
Key Selling Points:
This is a completely new translation—the first one based on the original Japanese Musashi text—making it THE definitive translation. The Book of Five Rings by Miyamoto Musashi is the most widely-read book on Samurai swordsmanship and Zen Buddhist thought ever written. Three other English translations have sold over 250,000 copies combined—and all three continue to sell strongly today. All other translations are based on modern retellings of Musahi's work which are quite different from the original text. Translator Alex Bennett is a respected Musashi scholar and experienced martial artist who holds numerous black belts, giving him a unique perspective on the Tuttle Publishing work. 9784805314760 Pub Date: 10/9/18 This book will be of tremendous interest to martial artists, students of Japanese $14.99 culture and anyone interested in Samurai history. Hardcover
240 Pages Summary color photos The culmination of 25 years of research, Alex Bennett's groundbreaking new English 7.5 in H | 5 in W translation of The Book of Five Rings reveals the true meaning of the original. Written by the famous Samurai Miyamoto Musashi (1584-1645), The Book of Five Rings is the most influential work on Samurai swordsmanship ever written, offering insights into Samurai history, the Zen Buddhist state of "no-mind" that enables warriors to triumph and the philosophical meaning of Bushido—"the way of the warrior."
Until now, most English translations of The Book of Five Rings have been based on a single inaccurate copy of Musashi's long-lost original transcribed twenty-two years after his death. Bennett's translation is the first to be based on a careful reconstruction of the text by Japan's foremost Musashi scholar. By identifying discrepancies among the existing copies, adding missing text and correcting over 150 miscopied characters, this source is the closest representation of Musashi's original work possible. Utilizing this new source Bennett captures the subtle nuance of the classical Japanese text resulting in the most accurate English translation of The Book of Five Rings available.
Miyamoto Musashi's Book of Five Rings by Alex Bennett is richly annotated including an extensive introduction as well as translations of Musashi¦s other writings. A respected scholar, Bennett is also a skilled martial artist. His understanding of Musashi's methods provides a unique perspective. This book will be widely read by students of Japanese culture, Samurai history and martial arts setting a new standard against which all other translations will be measured. Contributor Bio Alex Bennett has two doctoral degrees in Japanese literature and history from Kyoto University and the University of Canterbury (NZ).

Tale of Genji The Authentic First Translation of the World's Earliest Novel Murasaki Shikibu, Kencho Suematsu, Michael Emmeric...
Key Selling Points:
New Foreword by Michael Emmerich Read the world's first novel, predating Shakespeare and even Chaucer See why this work of genius birthed an art form which is still integral to our lives today The work is interspersed with four-line waka poetry Lady Murasaki Shikibu's Buddhist values permeate this story of a philosopher- prince who becomes a hero
Summary The most famous work of Japanese literature and the world's first novel—The Tale of Genji was written a thousand years ago and is one of the enduring Tuttle Publishing classics of world literature. 9784805314647 Pub Date: 4/3/18 Written centuries before the time of Shakespeare and even Chaucer, The Tale of Genji $9.99 Trade Paperback marks the birth of the novel—and after more than a millennium, this seminal work continues to enchant readers throughout the world. Lady Murasaki Shikibu and her 224 Pages tale's hero, Prince Genji, have had an unmatched influence on Japanese culture. 8 in H | 5.1 in W Prince Genji manifests what was to become an image of the ideal Heian era courtier; gentle and passionate. Genji is also a master poet, dancer, musician and painter. The Tale of Genji follows Prince Genji through his many loves and varied passions. This book has influenced not only generations of courtiers and samurai of the distant past, but artists and painters even in modern times—episodes in the tale have been incorporated into the design of kimonos and handicrafts, and the four-line poems called waka which dance throughout this work have earned it a place as a classic text in the study of poetry.
This version by Kencho Suematsu was the first-ever translation in English. Condensed, it's a quarter length of the unabridged text, making it perfect for readers with limited time. Contributor Bio Lady Murasaki Shikibu, born in the year 978, was a member of the famed Fujiwara clan—one of the most influential families of the Heian period. Her literary ability quickly won her a place in the entourage of the Empress Akiko, whose court valued the rare woman who was a master of writing. After the death of her husband, Murasaki Shikibu immersed herself in Buddhism, and the religion's influences permeate her writing.
Michael Emmerich is Associate Professor of Japanese literature at the University of California, Los Angeles. He is the author of The Tale of Genji: Translation, Canonization, and World Literature, the editor of Read Real Japanese Fiction: Short Stories by Contemporary Writers and New Penguin Parallel Texts: Short Stories in Japanese, and the translation of numerous works of premodern, modern and contemporary Japanese Literature. In 2010, he was awarded the Japan-U.S. Friendship Commission Prize for the Translation of Japanese Literature for his translation of Kawakami Hiromi's novel Manazuru.
