Beschreibung

Sword Fighting Styles explores the fascinating intersection of Japanese historical martial arts and their influence on fight choreography in manga. The book examines how real-world sword fighting styles, such as Kenjutsu and Kendo, have been adapted and stylized for dramatic effect in manga, bridging the gap between historical martial practices and modern visual storytelling.

 
Readers will gain insight into the deeper connection between historical realities and fictional narratives, enhancing their appreciation of both historical combat and the creative process behind manga. The book delves into the cultural significance of swordsmanship in Japan, tracing its evolution from battlefield tactics to refined peacetime techniques during the Edo and Meiji periods.

 
By analyzing historical texts, illustrations, and specific manga examples, the book reveals how artists draw inspiration from fundamental principles of sword fighting. It progresses by first introducing basic stances and cuts, then examining specific historical styles, and finally analyzing their transformation in manga fight scenes, highlighting both faithfulness and creative liberties.

    First published as a print collection in 1992, when the writer lived in the UK, Rotten Pomerack now - with “voiceprint” - more clearly presents the writer’s voice and instinct for storytelling. Poem stories move from the Caribbean and other places to the UK, often examining the paradoxes and complexities of existence. For the print publication, Michael Horowitz commented that the collection was about “the proverbial slipping on a ‘rotten pomerack’ (French Creole for the cashew fruit) which can make events take an unexpected turn.

    Discover Henry David Thoreau’s philosophy of living a good life and learn how to apply it to your own.   The hero for our time is someone few people get right. Thoreau wasn’t a hermit in the woods. He lived during a time like ours, of rapid technological and economic changes, political division, and a pandemic. Thoreau, like us, reassessed his priorities: What does success really look like? What is my duty as an ethical citizen of a less-than-ethical world? How can I live a good life amid (insert hand-sweeping gesture) all of this?   His solution: Pare down to trade up.  Finding Your Walden combines classic literature with happiness studies, exploring how experts—psychologists, career coaches, and doctors—support Thoreau’s ideas as guideposts for today’s Great Reassessment. It combines insights of the 1854 classic with people who embrace the pare-down-to-trade-up philosophy today, whether through major life changes (such as tiny homes or sabbaticals) or smaller life hacks (like digital sabbaths or meditation practices). Their stories inspire us to apply creativity, simplicity, and peace to the experiment of life.  Finding Your Walden isn’t about shunning money or success. It’s about grappling with the purpose of the first and the meaning of the second. Whether you love Walden or haven’t read it, you can join Thoreau on a path to discover an intentional life during a volatile time—you just need to make a stop at a cabin on the way.
