Название: Samurai and the Warrior Culture of Japan, 471-1877: A Sourcebook ISBN: 1647920566 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781647920562 Издательство: Gazelle Book Services Рейтинг: Цена: 91510.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: In addition to providing excerpts from classic tales of Japans warrior past, this volume draws on a wide range of lesser-known but revealing sources -- including sword inscriptions, edicts, orders, petitions, and letters -- to expand and deepen our understanding of the samurai, from the orders origins in the fifth century to its abolition in the nineteenth. Taken together with Thomas Donald Conlans contextualising introductions and notes, these sources provide a rare window into the experiences, ideals, and daily lives of these now-sentimentalised warriors. Numerous illustrations, a glossary of terms, and a substantial bibliography further enhance the value of this book to students, scholars, and anyone interested in learning more about the samurai.

The general focus in Lakota oral literary research has been on content rather than process within oral traditions. In this groundbreaking study of the characteristics of Lakota oral style, Delphine Red Shirt shows how its composition and structure are reflected in the work of George Sword, who composed 245 pages of text in the Lakota language using the English alphabet. What emerges in Sword's Lakota narratives are the formulaic patterns inherent in the Lakota language that are used to tell the narratives, as well as recurring themes and story patterns. Red Shirt's primary conclusion is that this cadence originates from a distinctly Lakota oral tradition.
Red Shirt analyzes historical documents and original texts in Lakota to answer the question: How is Lakota literature defined? Her pioneering work uncovers the epistemological basis of this literature, which can provide material for literary studies, anthropological and traditional linguistics, and translation studies. Her analysis of Sword's texts discloses tools that can be used to determine whether the origin of any given narrative in Lakota tradition is oral, thereby opening avenues for further research.

Описание: This book tells the compelling story of the average US infantryman in the Vietnam War (1955-1975). Beginning with conscription, enlistment, Basic Training, and Advanced Individual Training at the Armed Forces Induction Center at Fort Polk (the infamous "Tigerland"), it goes on to explore the day-to-day realities of service in Vietnam, from routine tasks at the firebase to search-and-destroy missions, rocket attacks, and firefights in the field. Weaponry, clothing, and equipment are all described and shown in detailed color plates. A vivid picture of the unique culture and experiences of these soldiers emerges - from their vernacular to the prospect of returning to an indifferent, if not hostile, homeland.
