What he was doing there, IMHO, was looking at the way things were then in his era, and attempting to define them in the moment. :) <br /><br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14003001377110346265noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2648987284969270841.post-62323329482840101212012-11-22T22:18:18.698-05:002012-11-22T22:18:18.698-05:00This seemed rather clearer and to the point than I...This seemed rather clearer and to the point than I've seen previously. While I agree the word elements are basically interchangeable, I'm also not completely sure we're overcritical of Draeger. There may be some difference of nuance in a historical perspective, though it got overstated. The idea of 'doh' came from Taoism ("the teaching of doh") in China. By the time it got integrated it had to do with what passed as schools in Japan. Jyutsu is a little older and Japanese, Doh more Chinese, jyutsu outdoorsy, doh more indoorsy, jyutsu a little wild, doh a little tamer, jyutsu a bit more practical, doh a bit more philosophical, jyutsu something that can be mastered, doh something that defies mastery. The association of jyutsu with waza (i.e. techniques), and doh with ri (i.e. principles) is sound . . .Sean Fogartyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13337399878930552472noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2648987284969270841.post-61594672939564994362012-11-22T09:16:22.080-05:002012-11-22T09:16:22.080-05:00Very nicely put.
