Body's Voice: Ancient Memories Known Through Martial Arts Author: Hidetoshi Mitsuoka Publisher: PHP Institute Price: 1,300 yen + tax --- [Introduction] A body without culture does not exist. Culture without a body also does not exist. Using the "body's memory" etched in ancient martial arts as a clue, we decipher the "bodily sensations" and "state of mind" that we are losing in the modern era. "The body speaks. The mind listens." This philosophical essay delves into the depths of body culture, traversing Japanese traditional martial arts, performing arts, and faith. From the unique perspective that "culture is the memory of the body," this book unravels the spirituality that permeates martial arts, performing arts, and religion. It is also a favorite read among martial artists, artists, and researchers. --- [Book Condition] ・Cover: Slightly scuffed (no noticeable stains) ・Text: No writing or folds, in good condition ・Overall, the condition is good. --- [Shipping] ・Carefully packaged with waterproof protection and cushioning material ・Anonymous shipping (Mercari shipping) available ・Shipped on the same day or the next day --- #Body'sVoice #HidetoshiMitsuoka #MartialArts #BodyTheory #BodyCulture #MartialArtsPhilosophy #JapaneseCulture #OrientalThought #PHPInstitute #YoshinoriKono
