Synopsis
A collection of thrilling samurai tales tracing the history of seppuku from ancient times to the twentieth century. The history of seppuku -- Japanese ritual suicide by cutting the stomach, sometimes referred to as hara-kiri -- spans a millennium, and came to be favoured by samurai as an honourable form of death. Here, for the first time in English, is a book that charts the history of seppuku from ancient times to the twentieth century through a collection of swashbuckling tales from history and literature., This first comprehensive history in English of Japanese ritual suicide offers both action-packed stories that read like fiction, and invaluable scholarship - now in paperback. This impeccably researched survey looks at seppuku (or hara-kiri, as it's more commonly known outside Japan) from ancient to modern times. Author Andrew Rankin presents a selection of thrilling historical and literary samurai stories, as well as details about every aspect of the ritual, including: choosing and preparing the location, selecting a second, what to wear, shaving the head and bathing, the cutting technique, and different styles of seppuku. The author worked directly from original sources, such as medieval war tales, documents of the samurai clans, and execution handbooks; and provides much information that has never appeared in English before.

They shipped and told me they didn't have this item at the same time eBay thought the item should be delivered at my home. Full refund and apologies. My other ordered rare items did arrive though!
- i***8 (123)- Évaluations laissées par l'acheteur.Dernier moisAchat vérifiéExactly as described! Brand new, never been opened. This item is out of print so I feel like a got a great deal. The shipping package kept all items safe and packing filler was paper - so it was all fully biodegradable. The negative is that orders from this company are going to take much longer than eBay thinks - this is an international seller and the items go through multiple couriers and country customs inspections. Took about a month to reach me - be patient! :).
