About This Book

葉隠 (知的生きかた文庫) is a collection of teachings attributed to Yamamoto Tsunetomo, preserved by his disciple Tashiro Tsuramoto. It encapsulates the bushido spirit central to samurai culture during Japan's Edo period.

The text emphasizes loyalty, honor, and the acceptance of death as integral to a warrior's life. It serves as a guide for living with resolve and detachment from worldly concerns.

In this intellectual living library edition, the work is presented for contemporary readers seeking philosophical depth. It highlights principles that transcend historical contexts, influencing modern views on discipline and ethics.

Through its aphoristic style, the book encourages reflection on duty and the transient nature of existence. It remains a key resource for understanding Japanese cultural heritage.
