As I posted on another thread, I just saw True Grit, and the movie does have Grit. It made me think about the warrior types around the world. The Europeans had their Knights, The Japanese had the Samurai, and here in the states we had the Cowboy. I know there are other warrior types but these three are the ones that came to mind right away. I was thinking, the knight and the samurai for the most part seem attached to higher authorities, feudal lords and such. The cowboy, more of an independant? I know about Knights Errant, and Ronin, but they are somewhat of the outsider where the cowboy is naturally more of an individual?
What about Robin Hood? Any thoughts?
I think that in the past knights and cowboys were what we in America had to look up to, until of course the movie Star Wars and the Jedi. The jedi, of course are more eastern in nature, and even use an advanced japanese style blade.
