Publisher's Summary: Were the samurai vigilantes who acted outside the law, or upholders of law and order? This lecture offers an illuminating examination of the samurai, who seem to express so much of the Japanese spirit and history. Contrary to the popular, conventional view of samurai acting beyond the law, Professor Mass paints a more realistic picture of the warrior class and of the society that they served and helped to shape. |
