【DESCRIPTION】 TITLE Shoninki Publication year 1988 Author Masatake Fujibayashi Translator Sanjiro Kimura
Shoninki is a Kishu-ryu Ninjutsu book and it was written in 1681.'Sho' means 'correct' and 'Nin' means 'Ninjutsu'.That is to say,Shoninki means Correct Ninjutsu Book.
In Japan,it is a very famous Ninja book together with Bansen Shukai and Ninpiden.(They have been called 3 major ninja books in JAPAN) Many Japanese modern books on Ninja are based on them. Some researchers on Ninjutsu,Ninja such as Yumio Nawa think more highly of Shoninki than Bansen Shukai.
Unfortunately,it is very difficult even for Japanese to read it in the original because it was published in 1681(EDO period).And so he translated Shoninki into modern language.
The author of Shoninki says,'Ninja have often deceived people. So I described all the secret art of NINJA because it is impossible to defend oneself from danger without knowing them'. It can be said that to know the essence of Ninja and Ninjutsu,Shoninki is the first material for those who are interested in Ninja.
