    In March of 1974, while drilling a well, a work brigade of farmers discovered a subterranean chamber nearby the royal tomb of Qin Shi Huangdi, the first Emperor of China (Encyclopedia Britannica). The superstitious old women of the village believed that the digging would disturb the Earth God. Therefore, due to these spiritual beliefs, they did not report the discovery right away. Eventually, archeologists came to Xi’an in droves to study and extend the digs. This led to the uncovering of three vast pits to the east of the burial tomb. In these pits, chariots, weapons and over 7,000 terracotta soldiers and horses were unearthed (Roberts p. 25). After extensive research, historians and archeologists concluded these terracotta soldiers were buried there to protect Emperor Qin (pronounced Chin) and his underground kingdom in the afterlife.…

    Through comparing different translations of the same texts one can get an idea of the meanings for the Chinese words used by Chuang Tzu in his work. In comparison to the English language the difference in the translations of the text gives the impression that the Chinese words used are much broader terms and must be simplified before we can describe them in English. This paper will assess the second section of the Chuang Tzu, specifically Discussion on making all things equal translated by Burton Watson.[1]…

    Works of art have depicted many narratives of war. Most of these images describe the events of war but also in describing the war they also show the general attitudes. Attitudes of this have been changing as wars have advanced from the power of kingdoms to antiwar views. Many of these changes took place as artists started to gain creative freedom. Four images that express the depictions of war through time are an Ancient Greek Amphora dating back to 530 B.C., The Third of May 1808 by Francisco Goya, Guernica by Pablo Picasso and Famine Victim in a Feeding Center by James Nachtwey.…

    I read the Art of War during my high school year as a outside of the class reading book assigned by my language art teacher. I told him I was going to major in business (marketing). So when I first started reading the Art of War I was like “hey, if I have all the time in this world I could have think of all of these stuffs.” I had a big ego that time. Then I had a discussion about the Art of War with my physics teacher(he’s a genius literally, speaks 7-8 languages, mid twenties, doing his PhD. and also teaching). I asked him about the book why this is the knowledge in this book is something I could have think of. He replied something like this: “all the knowledge in this level are like this. It’s may not seem very deep and intriguing to me. However, let a hundred people read this book. They will all interpret differently. It is as if an exotic ingredient waiting to be made into some ridiculously complex dishes. Each chef will make them differently. Depending on the chefs’ expertise. That is why it the knowledge has been used in the business field for decades. To a common people they may think “hey, I could have thought of these stuffs” but they could never improvise those knowledge into practice. That is what separates the people reading this book. Sun Tzu may write quite simply in sentences, but it’s all the interpretation of each individual to put into practice that makes the book so powerful.” To say the least a big part of my ego has been removed. I have never thought of such common thing to be this powerful.…

    Sun Tzu: the Art of War

    Sun Tzu is the author of “Art of War”, one of the most influential and sought-after books about strategies in battles. However, the Art of War now applied in other fields like politics, business, sports and many more. Sun Tzu is a military general and philosopher who led several battles into a success with the use of deception, manipulation and unpredictable tactics. Sun Tzu was believed to have lived in the period of warring states. He worked under the leadership of Wu, a small semi-barbaric state. Wu, a neighboring kingdom, once conquered Chu and won. After some time, Nang Wa, the prime minister of Wu, decided to kill some of the royal descendants of the Chu kingdom in fear of being a victim of their revenge. Years passed by and Wu decided to conquer the Chu with Sun Tzu now on their side. Nang Wa led the troops of Wu. The Chu’s plan was to simultaneously attack the Wu soldiers from the front and the back. However, there were some conflicts between Nang Wa and his other leaders which led their plan to fail and making Sun Tzu in an advantage point. Sun Tzu’s strategy on the other hand was to retreat but advancing at the same time. He lured the troops of Chu into a deceit trap right from the start by losing. The Chu lost battles one after the other. Sun Tzu also faked defeat until the Chu advanced very deep into Wu land where the best Wu fighters are. The first few soldiers were the old and sick while they placed the hungry and strong soldiers at the end where the opponent lost most of its energy. One of his principles that is applicable in this battle is “Know your enemy and yourself and you will never be in Peril.”…
