This beautifully illustrated volume presents a large and diverse selection of samurai treasures from the Yale Peabody Museum of Natural History's renowned collection of Japanese artifacts. Among the fascinating objects are recently restored swords, scabbards, and armor, along with an array of prints, dishes, tea ceremony utensils, netsukes, scroll paintings, and other items suggestive of unexpectedly tranquil pursuits. The book introduces the samurai not only as warriors but also as keepers of the longest peace any large society has ever known. Although swords and armor reflect the military foundation of samurai culture, they also reveal the central importance of artistry and craftsmanship. In addition, such other treasured articles as woodblock prints, theater masks, and lacquered food bowls shed new light on the traditions of the samurai during their final era of peace. 000741173 650_0 $$aSamurai. 000741173 651_0 $$aJapan$$xHistory, Military. 000741173 7001_ $$aFleming, William D. 000741173 7001_ $$aWheeler, Robert George. 000741173 7102_ $$aPeabody Museum of Natural History. 000741173 85200 $$bgen$$hDS827.S3$$iD75$$i2015 000741173 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:741173$$pGLOBAL_SET 000741173 980__ $$aBIB 000741173 980__ $$aBOOK
