Specificatii
Researched and written by a professional linguist with decades of
experience as a student of Japanese language, culture, and martial
arts-including living and training in Japan for 10 years-The
Language of Aikido: A Practitioner's Guide to Japanese Characters
and Terminology was designed specifically for students and teachers
of the Japanese martial art Aikido, but will also be of interest to
Japanese language enthusiasts who practice other martial arts such
as Karate, Judo, Jujutsu, Iaido, and Kendo. Translating martial
arts terminology using a standard Japanese-to-English dictionary is
potentially fraught with cultural and contextual errors due to the
specialized way that such terminology is used in a Budo study. Even
dojo glossaries, while more specifically directed at relevant
connotations of such vocabulary, are sometimes lacking in depth and
historical and linguist context. Without the combination of a
background in the Japanese language coupled with a serious study of
Budo, proper understanding of the richness and full meanings of
these terms can prove difficult to the non-Japanese speaker. This
book attempts to address this problem by introducing the reader to
historical and deep contextual information, alternate
understandings of terms through the minds of experts in other
Japanese martial traditions, and multiple translations of
particular kanji (characters). In addition to chapters on Japanese
pronunciation and writing systems, this book contains countless
entries related to Aikido's history, luminary figures, rank,
customs and courtesies, training, equipment, fundamentals,
techniques, higher concepts, relevant Japanese proverbs, as well as
a sampling of translations of Doka (Songs of the Path) written by
Aikido's founder, Ueshiba Morihei. It is, to the best of my
knowledge, the single most complete work of its kind in existence
in the English language. In the words of Ikeda Hiroshi, Aikikai
Shihan 7th Dan and Boulder Aikikai Chief Instructor, In the process
of learning these arts, in addition to learning technical movement,
understanding the Japanese language is important-starting with
necessary words for use in the dojo including the names of
techniques, etiquette-related phrases, practice terminology, and
general martial arts vocabulary.
