More about the book
The narrative explores the moral foundations of Japan, particularly through the lens of Bushido and Feudalism, prompted by a conversation about the absence of religious instruction in schools. The author reflects on how these cultural elements shaped his understanding of right and wrong, contrasting them with European history and literature to enhance comprehension for foreign readers. He aims to clarify misconceptions about religion, expressing a deep respect for the teachings of Christ while critiquing ecclesiastical methods that obscure them.
