Inazō Nitobe (1862-1933) was a Japanese writer and politician of the late Meiji Era. His seminal work, 'Bushido: The Soul of Japan', was published in 1899. Originally written in English, the book aims to be a window to the West to showcase one of Japan's national treasures: the figure of the samurai. Through its pages, Nitobe explains the foundations upon which the samurai's path is built, highlighting the seven virtues that every good samurai should possess: rectitude, courage, benevolence, politeness, sincerity, honor, and loyalty.
