Traditional hornbow

传统角弓

“Drawing a bow requires overcoming enormous resistance. Nowadays, a horn bow is no longer a symbol of violence; on the contrary, a person trained in archery shows a kind of accomplishment actually.” Duan Meishan – a traditional horn bow craftsman explains: The ancients said: “‘Judge ones’ morals from their archery.’ Shootingis one of Confucianism's traditional ‘six arts’— manners, music, shooting,riding, writing, and arithmetic.”

“挽弓需要克服巨大的阻力。如今角弓承载的已经不再是一种暴力；正相反，一个人能把射箭练好，其实体现出一种修养。”传统角弓手艺人段美山解释：古人云‘射以观德’，它属于儒家传统的“六艺”礼、乐、射、御、书、数之一。
