The author awarded the honorable title of - Writer of the Year - By "The International Ryukyu Karate Research Society" (IRKRS)/December 2017.
Mr. Patrick McCarthy, Hanshi 9th Dan Director of IRKRS: "Remarkable research undertaken and produced in this work. The volume and extensive resources used to complete his publication is, without question, outstanding... This work belongs in/on the bookshelves of any/every serious learner of the art... Mr. Cohen had undertaken an enormous task of researching and documenting his lengthy study. I found his work intelligently weaved together the very fabric holding together the twin arts of Karate and Kobudo, along with its personalities, social, military, spiritual/religious and cultural events, that helped shape their evolution. Without doubt, this gentleman had produced an outstanding piece of work and worthy of high praise. I did feel it deserved a hard cover, simply because of the value it represents... Cohen wrapped up the end of each section with his personal summation. A really nice and revealing touch."
Since its incorporation into the Japanese nation-state in 1879, Okinawa has been seen by both Okinawans and Japanese as an exotic “South,” both spatially and temporally distinct from modern Japan. In The Limits of Okinawa, Wendy Matsumura traces the emergence of this sense of Okinawan difference, showing how local and mainland capitalists, intellectuals, and politicians attempted to resolve clashes with labor by appealing to the idea of a unified Okinawan community. Their numerous confrontations with small producers and cultivators who refused to be exploited for the sake of this ideal produced and reproduced “Okinawa” as an organic, transhistorical entity. Informed by recent Marxist attempts to expand the understanding of the capitalist mode of production to include the production of subjectivity, Matsumura provides a new understanding of Okinawa's place in Japanese and world history, and it establishes a new locus for considering the relationships between empire, capital, nation, and identity.

Описание: The traditions of karate have transformed in diversity, as its popularity has spread worldwide. The work of Seihin Yamanouchi, in relating karate and Okinawan Te to dance, was a crucial element in this process. His influence on bringing these connections to the surface of the martial-art scene in Okinawa and mainland Japan was profound and quietly took hold among certain teachers. Regarding these, the most obvious name is Seikichi Uehara. He established Motobu-ryu in 1947, which was based on udun-di, the type of Te formerly taught to Okinawan royalty. In the 1970s, he began a series of community demonstrations, with the theme 'Dance & Martial Arts', that served to both show the connections of these two elements, while beginning to unscrew the locked doors of Te. Other directly influenced parties were: Tatsuo Shimabuku of Isshin-ryu karate, Seitoku Higa of the Bugeikan & Eizo Shimabuku, of Shorin-ryu. Clearly then, the soul of Seihin Yamanouchi and his book remain as an eternal testament to this research.

Описание: Okinawan te is an ancient martial art that has empty-hand applications & a bladed-weaponry system. Frequently referred to simply as te, it became the underlying attribute of karate & gave this newer, popular martial art its effectiveness as a flexible & healthful method of self-defence against attackers. Modern-day karate in general has lost much of the original te on which it was founded. Yet, whenever the topic of self-defence is discussed, or when people feel a need to learn a martial art that will protect them if attacked in the street, they generally think of taking up karate, without being aware of its deeper origins. Within these pages then is the serious martial artists chance to study, learn, train in & put into practice the almost lost methods of Okinawan te, here decoded into effective self-defence methods that, while saving life & limb, will help to create all-round health.
