Sinopsis

Ancient Fighting Arts explores the surprising connections between historical combat methods and their influence on modern martial arts and even Japanese manga. It reveals how ancient warfare strategies and weaponry innovations shaped close-quarters fighting techniques across various civilizations. For example, the book highlights how swordsmanship evolved through centuries of social and political changes, a legacy still visible today. The book examines the evolution of battlefield tactics, the lineages of specific martial arts like grappling and archery, and the incorporation of ancient combat aesthetics into manga. By analyzing primary sources, archaeological findings, and martial arts manuals, Ancient Fighting Arts bridges the gap between military history and cultural expression. The book progresses through chapters that dissect ancient weaponry, explore specific martial arts traditions, and analyze their representation in manga, offering a unique perspective that combines historical research with popular culture analysis.

    A deeply relevant look at what fascism means to Americans. 
     
    From the time Mussolini took power in Italy in 1922, Americans have been obsessed with and brooded over the meaning of fascism and how it might migrate to the United States. Fascism Comes to America examines how we have viewed fascism overseas and its implications for our own country. Bruce Kuklick explores the rhetoric of politicians, who have used the language of fascism to smear opponents, and he looks at the discussions of pundits, the analyses of academics, and the displays of fascism in popular culture, including fiction, radio, TV, theater, and film. Kuklick argues that fascism has little informational meaning in the United States, but instead, it is used to denigrate or insult. For example, every political position has been besmirched as fascist. As a result, the term does not describe a phenomenon so much as it denounces what one does not like. Finally, in displaying fascism for most Americans, entertainment—and most importantly film—has been crucial in conveying to citizens what fascism is about. Fascism Comes to America has been enhanced by many illustrations that exhibit how fascism was absorbed into the US public consciousness.
