Eugen Herrigel (1885–1955)

Eugen Herrigel was a German philosopher who introduced Zen to large parts of Europe. He used archery in an attempt to further understand Zen. In 1936 he published a 20-page article entitled Die Ritterliche Kunst des Bogenschiessens (The Knightly Art of Archery) in the journal, Zeitshrift für Japanologie, which later formed the core of his most famous work Zen in the Art of Archery.
