About this listen
Bushido significa muchas cosas, pero todas pueden resumirse en una: el alma de Japón. Este antiguo código guerrero japonés supone un tratado con todos los preceptos interiorizados por el pueblo japonés desde tiempos inmemoriales, y supone una radiografía pormenorizada de su identidad, su historia y su razón de ser.
Inazo Nitobe (1862-1933) nació en Morioka en el seno de una familia samurái. Estudió en la Universidad de Sapporo, donde se convirtió al cristianismo. En 1884 fue enviado por el Gobierno japonés a los EE.UU. para completar sus formación académica y allí se unió a la Sociedad Religiosa de los Amigos, o cuáqueros, y se casó con Mary Patterson. En 1891, regresó a Japón y enseñó en la universidad hasta 1897, cuando tomó una excedencia para escribir el Bushido.
Nitobe tuvo una dilatada carrera como profesor y hombre de estado. Fue representante de Japón en la Liga de las Naciones Unidas (antecesora de la ONU), cofundador del germen de la UNESCO y promotor del esperanto. Tras abandonar los cargos internacionales, fue congresista en Japón, donde defendió posturas antimilitaristas. Murió en Vancouver en 1933 cuando volvía a Japón de una reunión internacional.

Bushido: El código del Samurái, publicado por primera vez en 1905, nos abre las puertas a las tradiciones del reservado mundo de los samuráis. Nunca antes nadie había explicado la vida de los samuráis en español, ni había trazado cómo su código ha moldeado el carácter del pueblo japonés.

Story
For centuries, the Japanese samurai were the unquestioned leaders of their society, maintaining their position through their iron will, Zen-like emotional control, and clan-building social skills. Today, in a world that focuses on instant gratification and self-indulgence, the way of the samurai is a challenging path to follow but will bring huge rewards to anyone who commits to it.

Story
Bushido: The Soul of Japan is a seminal study on the way of the samurai by the Japanese educator Inazo Nitobe. From 1868, the beginning of the Meiji Era, Japan rapidly transformed itself from an isolated feudal society into a modern, industrialised nation state, influenced by Western philosophical and scientific ideas. Nitobe wrote Bushido in English to explain the samurai way to a western audience; it was later translated into Japanese.

From a leading expert in Japanese history, this is one of the first full histories of the art and culture of the Samurai warrior. The Samurai emerged as a warrior caste in Medieval Japan and would have a powerful influence on the history and culture of the country from the next 500 years. Clements also looks at the Samurai wars that tore Japan apart in the 17th and 18th centuries and how the caste was finally demolished in the advent of the mechanized world.

Continuing where Thus Spoke Zarathustra left off, Nietzsche's controversial work Beyond Good and Evil is one of the most influential philosophical texts of the 19th century and one of the most controversial works of ideology ever written. Attacking the notion of morality as nothing more than institutionalised weakness, Nietzsche criticises past philosophers for their unquestioning acceptance of moral precepts. Nietzsche tried to formulate what he called "the philosophy of the future".
