CHAPTER XI THINGS THAT THE STUDENT CAN TEACH HIMSELF--HOW AGILITY IS ACQUIRED In the preceding chapters there has been given all that is essential to the preliminary work of the jiu-jitsu student. One who has mastered in all its details the work described, and who has kept at it with assiduity, will find himself in greatly improved health and much better able to cope with an adversary in actual combat. The Japanese student is required to devote several months to the foundation work. In his earlier months of practice he is kept mostly at the feats whose aim is the development of muscle and endurance, and he is given only enough combat work to keep up his interest in the study of physical well-being. After the first few months of practice the student is taught to think more for himself. There is much that he can teach himself. Reference has been made already to the student's ability, after some early instruction, to locate for himself nearly all of the vulnerable muscles and nerves of the body. In the limbs the most vulnerable parts for the pinches are to be found, as nearly as can be described, at the centres of the fronts and backs of arms and legs. The neck is full of points where a pinch can be secured with most painful results to the victim. Some of these have been indicated, but it is necessary to add only that the student should locate every one of the rest by actual practice upon his own neck. He can test then the efficacy of these holds upon the neck of a companion, submitting in turn to a like attack. Suppose the student clasps his hands with the fingers interlaced. He will discover that a quick, hard wrench of one of his wrists upwards or sideways produces pain and a weakness of the muscles and bones of the attacked part. On the...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the late-nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, America and Japan were in the process of establishing their positions as powers in a world dominated by Western Europe. The two nations with unconnected histories and cultures found themselves in momentary sympathy as they embarked on their first forays into military imperialism, expanded their trade, and constructed civic institutions intended to compete with those of Europe. It was during this period that mass entertainments developed and began circulating across national borders and, drawing on tourist practices, helped create a "universal" visual culture which coexisted with local particularities. This dissertation undertakes a study of Japanese and American shared visual culture and modern entertainments with the goal of nuancing current scholarship on East/West exchanges and expanding the definition of modernity. Three modern phenomena, panoramas, World's Fairs, and film, form the core of my three main chapters and describe a process of appropriation, assimilation, and collaboration through their movements from Europe, across America to Japan, and ending with a return to America. Many scholars have observed that Americans viewed Japan as a confusing cultural other with a baffling skill at appearing modern. This dissertation begins with the premise that Japan was modern and re-examines American and Japanese cultural exchanges from this position with the aim of shifting the paradigms of modernity and modern visuality.
