Le Livre des cinq anneaux, également connu sous le nom de Traité des cinq roues est un texte de kenjutsu écrit par Musashi Miyamoto vers 1645. Musashi alors âgé de 60 ans se retire dans une grotte et se livre à un exercice d'introspection et de réflexion sur l'art du sabre japonais. Ce livre est généralement considéré comme un classique de stratégie militaire, à la manière du traité sur L'Art de la guerre par Sun Zi (Sun Tsu). Comme ce dernier, le livre des cinq anneaux de Musashi va au delà d'un simple traité sur l'art du sabre, les développements philosophiques du livre peuvent être appréciés par un auditoire non exclusivement réservé au pratiquant d'arts martiaux. De par ses éléments sur la guerre dans son ensemble, il est aussi un livre de stratégie militaire mais a également dépassé cette audience pour intéresser les hommes d'affaire dans la résolution de conflits. Le style à deux sabres fait de cet ouvrage un véritable manuel quotidien de technique et de philosophie dont le succès reste constant depuis des siècles.
