![]() ![]() ![]() Thus, on October 10, he once again went out to Mount Iwato, where he had previously practiced both swordsmanship and Zen meditation, and climbed the path up the rocky outcropping leading to Reigan Cave. By early autumn, he felt that it was time to prepare a legacy beyond his paintings, his reputation, and what was understood of his style of swordsmanship. Kumamoto, the castle town in which he resided, was hot and muggy, but Musashi persevered in the dojo, although he did not push his students to physical and mental exhaustion the way other teachers often did. In the summer of 1643, at the age of fifty-nine, an ailing Miyamoto Musashi was still practicing calligraphy, chanting passages from Noh theater, studying classical poetry, and teaching swordsmanship to a few disciples. ![]() At the author’s request, Japanese names are given here in their traditional form: surname first. Here, William Scott Wilson, historian and translator of The Book of Five Rings, delineates those principles and discusses the huge influence the book has had. A major reason for the lasting importance of Musashi Miyamoto-the historical figure played by Toshiro Mifune in The Samurai Trilogy- in Japanese and world culture is his work The Book of Five Rings, a seventeenth-century treatise on the wandering samurai’s principles of swordplay and spirituality that is still widely read today. ![]()

The thing about my posting schedule (which lately consists of a single post, then three months of nothing, then a handful of posts, then five months of nothing, and so on until, presumably, either my brain breaks or all of yours do) is that it’s mostly downsides.

He invites Emiko to the quiet house he shares with Sophie in Ontario, and as Sophie declines toward death, Anton tells Emiko all the ways he has influenced her life since Hiroshima. We have all paid." When Emiko confronts Anton in 1995 at a lecture in New York, he surprises himself by agreeing to participate in a documentary she's filming. Though Anton claims that the bomb was dropped "to save lives," he remains acutely aware of the human cost, both to its victims and himself: "I know the world requires a certain payment from us. ![]() For Sophie, Anton's wife-herself a half-Jewish refugee from Austria-there is the pain of exile, a debilitating illness and the heavy shadow of her husband's guilt. ![]() For Anton Böll, a refugee German scientist who helped build the bomb, the scars are emotional, though he tried to transform his feelings into images in a series of secret films shot among Hiroshima's ruined buildings. For Emiko Amai, the imprint lingers on her face, in the form of burn scars from the heat of the bomb's detonation in 1945, when she was six. No matter how far they travel from Hiroshima, the protagonists of Canadian author Bock's roomy, thoughtful novel are marked by the effects of the atomic bomb. ![]() ![]() ![]() In months to come, three other feature films he co-wrote will be released: Farador (in which he also has the lead role), Viking and the adaptation of the best-selling novel Le Plongeur. 0 (0 valuation) Partagez votre opinion 1 Star 2 Stars 3 Stars 4 Stars 5 Stars Empty.

And after Cohen’s death in November 2016, the song experienced another resurgence. Years after its initial release, “Hallelujah” was covered prominently by Cale, Buckley, Wainwright, and more (see below). It’s because of these themes that the song has since become timeless. ![]() Cohen, who is considered one of music’s greatest poets, writes expertly and exquisitely about the human condition, about love and sadness and remorse and hope in the track. Of course, it’s important to start the conversation about “Hallelujah” with its lyrics. The story of the song’s fame and impact has as much to do with Cohen as it does with several other notable musicians and performers, namely John Cale, Jeff Buckley, and Rufus Wainwright. ![]() |
