Description
Summary:This book, written by Marcos Buccellato, is an ethnographic study of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) and its cultural implications. It explores how martial arts are learned and taught, emphasizing the journey from student to teacher. The author challenges Cartesian dualism by examining the integration of mind and body in martial arts practice. The work is pioneering in its approach to martial arts from a social sciences perspective, particularly focusing on the South American context. Intended for scholars and practitioners in social sciences and martial arts, it sheds light on the community and institutional dynamics of BJJ.
