Japan to 1200
Anthropologists believe that the Japanese archipelago was settled by migrants from the Asian mainland sometime between 140,000 and 500,000 years ago, when falling global temperatures trapped water in glaciers and the polar ice caps, causing sea levels to drop 120 m or more below their present levels, and opening land bridges to Siberia and the Korean peninsula. Permanent village settlements and a cultural complex known as the Jōmon, after the dis…

The Way of Which Warriors? Bushidō & the Samurai in Historical Perspective
Modern commentators have too often attempted to treat bushidō as an enduring code of behaviour readily encapsulated in simplistic notions of honour, duty, and loyalty. The historical reality, however, is anything but simple. Samurai ethics and behavioural norms varied significantly from era to era—most especially across the transition from the medieval to early modern age—and in most cases bore scant resemblance to twentieth-century fantasies abo…

The Futile Paradigm
How useful is ‘feudalism’ as a paradigm for understanding medieval Japan? While the construct has a venerable history in application to the Japanese past, it is rarely invoked by specialists today, who tend to focus comparative analyses on fundamental differences, rather than superficial parallels between medieval Japan and medieval Europe. This article examines both the history and the utility of the feudal construct, discussing problems inheren…

Samurai, Warfare and the State in Early Medieval Japan
Karl Friday, an internationally recognised authority on Japanese warriors, provides the first comprehensive study of the topic to be published in English. This work incorporates nearly twenty years of on-going research and draws on both new readings of primary sources and the most recent secondary scholarship. It overturns many of the stereotypes that have dominated views of the period. Friday analyzes Heian -, Kamakura- and Nambokucho-period war…

Warriors of Japan, as Portrayed in the War Tales
Bushido or Bull? A Medieval Historian's Perspective on the Imperial Army and the Japanese Warrior Tradition
It would be difficult to find any facet of Japan's cultural heritage that exercises as powerful a hold on the world's popular imagination as the samurai.1 For the most part, the image of the samurai and the tradition he represents is positive. Japanese warriors are the heroes of movies, TV shows, and novels, and the role models for hundreds of thousands of martial arts students around the globe. But for many among the generation that fought Japan…

Heavenly Warriors
a government, military matters are the essential thing, said Japan's Heavenly Warrior, the Emperor Temmu, in 684. In the West, however, the story of the origins and development of Japan's warrior class has remained largely untold. Misled by analogies to European knighthood, Western and late 19th-century Japanese scholarship wrongly assumed a feudal origin for the samurai and interpreted their place in Japanese history accordingly. Now, with Heave…
