Sinopsis

Samurai Influence explores the deep connection between the legendary samurai and their enduring impact on modern manga. By examining how samurai traditions, weaponry like the katana, and battle strategies of feudal Japan are adapted, the book reveals how the samurai ethos continues to resonate within popular culture. Readers will discover how the samurai code of Bushido serves as a moral compass for manga characters, highlighting both historical accuracy and the romanticized appeal of these ideals.

 
The book analyzes specific manga series, dissecting their portrayals of samurai combat, honor, and sacrifice, with an emphasis on visual representation and symbolic elements. Beginning with the historical context of the samurai, from the Kamakura period to the Meiji Restoration, it progresses to analyze how these influences contribute to themes of justice, loyalty, and self-discovery.

 
Ultimately, Samurai Influence showcases how manga serves as a powerful medium for transmitting and reinterpreting key aspects of samurai culture and philosophy to a global audience.

  • JFK and the Reagan Revolution - A Secret History of American Prosperity - cover

    JFK and the Reagan Revolution -...

    The little-known story of how JFK pioneered supply-side economics Who invented supply-side economics-the idea that cutting tax rates can result in more growth, more prosperity at all income levels, and even more tax revenue flowing into the IRS? Most people would credit the economic team that advised Ronald Reagan in the late 1970s and early 1980s. But in fact, supply-side economics actually came of age two decades earlier. And the first president who embraced it was one of the biggest icons of the Democratic Party-John F. Kennedy. As Larry Kudlow and Brian Domitrovic explain, this is an inconvenient fact for both parties. Liberals hate the idea that JFK successfully pioneered an economic principle that has become a core part of the GOP platform. And conservatives hate to admit that their hero, Reagan, grabbed one of his most successful policies not merely from a Democrat, but from a KENNEDY. So neither side has much incentive to talk about the tax battles inside the Kennedy Administration. In a blow-by-blow narrative of those years, the authors reveal how JFK assembled Keynesian advisors, only to reject their plans for loose money and big spending. Instead, Kennedy embraced ideas advanced by the non-Keynesians on his team of rivals and drew upon his own deep reading of history to opt for tax cuts and a recommitment to the gold standard. Here we meet a fascinating cast of Kennedy Administration characters, especially Treasure Secretary Douglas Dillon, the token Republican in JFK's cabinet. Dillon's opponents, such as liberal economists Paul Samuelson, Robert Solow, and James Tobin, strove to stifle the push to bring down the high tax rates--including an astonishing 91% top rate on the wealthiest earners-that were damaging the economy. Once JFK became convinced of the power of tax cuts, he held his ground against the Keynesians. And as Kennedy made his case for the tax cut, the economy took off. After the assassination, Lyndon Johnson finally signed the tax-cut law in February 1964. The subsequent economic boom delivered the greatest prosperity the nation had ever seen. The First Supply-Sider is an eye-opening look at one of the most important yet least understood episodes in American economic history. It reveals the low-tax tradition within the Democratic party, one that the Republicans at last made their own only with Reagan.

  • Black Dahlia and Sharon Tate The: The Lives and Deaths of Hollywood’s Most Famous Murder Victims - cover

    Black Dahlia and Sharon Tate...

    In the years following World War II, Los Angeles and other large American cities were hit with a series of brutal murders that, in many ways, fit into distinct patterns across the country. The Los Angeles Police Department was overwhelmed, caught up dealing with mob activities, inner corruption, a regional press that brazenly invaded legal confidentiality within the walls of the police department itself, and a lack of advanced technology. As a result, several of the most highly publicized murders committed against young female newcomers went unsolved in perpetuity, and they have remained topics of conversation among crime enthusiasts well into the following century. That said, one of these crimes stands above the others as an iconic example of unthinkably grotesque savagery, a psychopathic act equal to any horror movie Hollywood has produced, the January  1947 murder of Elizabeth Short, famously dubbed ‘The Black Dahlia’ by an engrossed press and public. 
    	In 1969, things were looking up for one of Hollywood’s most marketable actresses. After appearing as a model in fashion magazines and having bit parts on shows during the early part of the decade, Sharon Tate was a star in the making. That summer, she was pregnant with her first child by director Roman Polanski, who had just recently become her husband, and a few months earlier, she had just finished filming The Thirteen Chairs, co-starring Orson Welles. Tragically, superstardom would never come, and even today, over 45 years later, most details of Sharon’s life and career are completely overlooked by people who continue to be morbidly curious about her murder at the hands of the Manson Family on August 9, 1969. The murders committed by Charlie Manson’s followers transfixed America, and Tate has been inextricably linked to one of 20th century America’s most notorious criminals.
