Synopsis

There are various Ways. There is the Way of salvation by the law of Buddha, the Way of Confucius governing the Way of learning, the Way of healing as a doctor, as a poet teaching the Way of Waka, tea, archery, and many arts and skills. Each man practises as he feels inclined. It is said the warrior's is the twofold Way of pen and sword, and he should have a taste for both Ways. Even if a man has no natural ability he can be a warrior by sticking assiduously to both divisions of the Way.

À propos des auteurs

Miyamoto Musashi (c. 1584-1645) was a Japanese swordsman, strategist, and philosopher, widely regarded as one of the greatest martial artists in history. Undefeated in more than sixty duels, Musashi developed a distinctive two-sword technique and a broader philosophy of strategy that emphasized timing, adaptability, and mental discipline. The Book of Five Rings, written near the end of his life, remains his most influential work and continues to be studied in fields ranging from martial arts to business and leadership.

Lew Hartman is an illustrator whose work draws on historical, symbolic, and atmospheric elements to interpret classic texts. His illustrations for The Book of Five Rings are designed to complement Musashi's philosophy through restrained composition and evocative imagery, emphasizing clarity, tension, and the disciplined aesthetic associated with the samurai tradition.
