My topic is on the responsibilities of the samurai warriors. No. Not the
killing Japanese people who get to do what ever they want. The Samurai had many
responsibilities that were hard to keep up with. It is kind of a process like
"survival of the fittest." The specific responsibilities are
mentioned in the Bushido, which is a list of the Samurai responsibilities.
The responsibilities of the samurai were far
more complex and extensive than one might think. The Samurai were very valuable
for Japanese society, because of all the required responsibilities. When people
think of a Samurai warrior they often picture a threatening, murdering Japanese
soldier doing whatever they want. However, Samurai warriors had to follow a
strict code of conduct, and with the privileges they had as Samurai warriors
came much responsibility. The Bushido is the code of conduct, which goes into
depth. The specific responsibilities are each described and mentioned through
the text, where people can study and research at easy access.
Wow, great topic Ellie. Will you be focusing on the Warring States period, the Edo Period, or maybe a throwback to the Genpai War and the early Muromachi Period?
