Here, a young graduate student from Rome makes a discovery that inspires a search for a painting lost for almost two centuries. The artist was Caravaggio, a revolutionary painter beset by personal demons. Four hundred years ago, he drank and brawled in the taverns and streets of Rome, in and out of jail, all the while painting transcendent works. He rose from obscurity to fame and wealth, but success didn't alter his violent temperament. He died young, alone, and under strange circumstances. Caravaggio scholars estimate that between sixty and eighty of his works are in existence today. Many others - no one knows the precise number - have been lost to time. Somewhere, surely, a masterpiece lies forgotten. This quest is a synthesis of history and detective story." ISBN 0375508015.…

His father, Muneyoshi, trained under Kamiizumi Hidetsuna, reputed to be the best swordsman in his time. In 1632, the year he was appointed Inspector General, Munenori~a contemporary of the equally famous warrior, Miyamoto Musashi, author of A BOOK OF FIVE RINGS ( Go Rin No Sho)~ completed his own treatise on swordsmanship, THE SWORD AND THE MIND (Heiho Kaden Sho). On its simplest level, THE SWORD AND THE MIND is an illuminating "how to" volume of swordsmanship maneuvers complete with step~by~step instructions for positioning, striking~with one and two swords~and defending yourself against an opponent. But on a deeper level this work is a philosophical and psychological guide to strategy. Long considered a classic of tactical wisdom, THE SWORD AND THE MIND is the first English translation of this great work. It is an extraordinary synthesis of ideas and experiences of three swordsmen: Hidetsuna, Muneyoshi, and Munenori. During the century and a half that these three men lived 1508~1646,Japan changed fundamentally. When Hidetsuna was born, the country was in the middle of the age of warring states. By the time Munenori died, the foundations of the Tokugawa shogunate had been firmly laid, and the domestic stability of the country has never been seriously broken since. The three men's lives illustrate the historic changes that took place throughout these years. THE SWORD AND THE MIND, as rendered by the P.E.N translation award winner, Hiroaki Sato, is their legacy to the modern reader. With more than twenty~five black~and~white illustrations, a glossary, chronology, bibliography, and annotations throughout, this important work also includes a discussion of the life and times of these three superior swordsmen and the cultural and philosophical meanings of the treatise.…
