Truly magnificent work of art!! Samurai were the military nobility of medieval and early-modern. In Japanese, they are usually referred to as bushi or buke. According to translator William Scott Wilson: In Chinese, the ideogram word was originally a verb meaning to wait upon or accompany persons in the upper ranks of society, and this is also true of the original term in Japanese, saburau. In both countries the terms were incorporated to mean “those who serve in close attendance to the nobility”, the pronunciation in Japanese changing to samurai. An early reference to the word “samurai” appears in the Kokin Wakashu (905914), the first imperial anthology of poems, completed in the first part of the 10th century. By the end of the 12th century, samurai became almost entirely synonymous with bushi, and the word was closely associated with the middle and upper echelons of the warrior class. Samurai ideology strongly supports a firm code of honor and justice for the protection of the weak and defenseless. Bushido also stood for self-sacrifice, absolute loyalty, bravery, maximum weapon mastery, and being on constant standby to fight. The samurai followed a set of rules that came to be known as bushido. While the samurai numbered less than 10% of. S population, their teachings can still be found today in both everyday life and in modern Japanese martial arts.
