Pocas figuras del Lejano Oriente tan atractivas para el imaginario occidental (y descontando, por supuesto, el propio de Japón) como la del samurái, temible guerrero imbuido de una mística especial y provisto de una exótica indumentaria y un armamento deslumbrante.

Condizione: New. Idioma/Language: Español. Descubre la verdadera historia de los samuráis. Más allá de la leyenda y más allá del mito aguarda una realidad apasionante. Durante siete siglos, los samuráis constituyeron la élite social y política de Japón y forjaron en torno a sí el mito del guerrero noble de espíritu, valiente, honorable y fiel. Pero, ¿qué hay de cierto en aquello que sabemos o creemos saber acerca de los samuráis? ¿Cuál es su verdadera historia? A lo largo de los doce capítulos que conforman este libro, recorreremos más de mil años de la historia de esta casta de guerreros, desde su paulatino surgimiento durante la segunda mitad del primer milenio hasta su desaparición oficial a finales del siglo XIX. Un relato veraz y ameno, basado en hechos, bibliografía y documentos históricos, que describe también la parte legendaria y mítica pero sin confundirla con la realidad, pues esta resulta suficientemente apasionante por sí misma. Nueva edición del primer libro escrito en castellano sobre la casta de guerreros más famosa del mundo. Bellamente ilustrado con mapas, fotografías y grabados históricos. Un libro apasionante que repasa 1000 años en la Historia de Japón. Nuevo prólogo de Carlos Martínez Shaw (Real Academia de la Historia). *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.
