Miyamoto Musashi y el Código del Samurái. Si el gran estratega militar de la antigua China Sun Tzu estableció con todo rigor los principios del arte de la guerra cuando se enfrentan contingentes de hombres en un campo de batalla, Miyamoto Musashi, un invencible guerrero samurái hizo lo propio con el enfrentamiento individual entre dos personas en una lucha a muerte, y donde solo uno de los dos saldrá con vida. No hemos presenciado nunca un duelo semejante, pero Miyamoto los vio y participó en ellos, y no en pocos, sino en más de medio centenar, él confiesa que fueron unos sesenta y ...

In Japan’s oldest stories the divine never stays aloof; it slips from pine bough to mountain path, from a breath of wind to the pulse of a village well. Gods marry mortals, grieve, rage, vanish into fog, and demand a quiet justice that outlives kings and seasons. This is not folklore as ornament—this is a world where kami are immediate, luminous, and dangerous in equal measure. GODS OF JAPAN distills Shinto’s fierce intimacy into sharp, lyrical retellings. Creation begins with a jeweled spear and a drop of brine. Sun goddesses hide until the world almost covers itself in frost. Fox ...

Marchione, a gunner in the US Air Force, died, like so many before him in World War II, quietly, cradled in the arms of a buddy.

This mission US Navy fighters, fighter-bombers, dive-bombers, and torpedo-bombers - Hellcats, Avengers, Helldivers, and more - carried out with a vengeance, striking airfields, industrial targets, and coastal facilities while flying into the teeth of Japanese air defenses.

On traverse les siècles et les campagnes japonaises à un rythme très zen, on s'arrête sur les détails au gré des envies. Brasser toute l'histoire du Japon depuis sa création, sa genèse aussi céleste et lunaire qu'une terre dissimulée derrière huit épaisseurs de nuées blanches, comme pour échapper encore à nos regards, est un pari un peu fou.
