Beschreibung
"Beginning with the legendary samurai Miyamoto Musashi, nearly all of the great martial arts left a legacy of calligraphy and painting. Their artwork-Zenga and Zensho ("Zen pictures" and "Zen calligraphy") - was an extension of their Zen practice-but also reflected their deep spiritual commitment to the budo ethos, the perfection of self through martial arts training. This book presents a concise history of this tradition, with works from such samurai as Musashi, Takuan, Yagyu, Motusgai, Rengetsu, Tesshu Deishu, Kano, Morihei, and others. Aikido master John Stevens is an expert on Zen and budo art, and he provides a fascinating introduction to the tradition and biographical details on each of the warrior artists, and brief, illuminating commentary on each piece"--
