Bushido, literally meaning "Way of the Warrior", is the
Code of Honour and way of life of the Samurai. There are eight virtues, which a Samurai must try to possess:
a sense of justice and honesty,
courage and contempt for death, self-control, sympathy towards all people, politeness and respect for etiquette, sincerity and respect for one's word of honour, absolute loyalty to one's superior, a duty to defend the honour of one's name and guild. |
