About this product
Art. : 333-69

Basho, Buson, Issa... The history of haiku is inextricably linked with these three names: its origin and heyday.

Over time, the classical Japanese pentameter (tanka) began to be clearly divided into two stanzas: a three-line and a couplet, sometimes written by different poets. The first three-line was called the "opening stanza", in Japanese "hokku", and was not necessarily associated with the subsequent couplet. Collections of the best haiku even began to appear.

In the second half of the 17th century, haiku became firmly established in Japanese poetry. It rose to its true height thanks to Matsuo Basho (1644-1694). His triplets, with their depth and wisdom, are not just a poetic impression-an impromptu one - the refinement of form, thoughtfulness of images and composition were the result of serious reflection, intense creative work. In his travels, Basho created a new poetry that could not be created by staying in one place.

At the beginning of the XVIII century, haiku was in decline, but in the middle of the century, a poet appeared who breathed new life into this genre, Yosa Buson (1716-1783). He had many students, but during his lifetime his haiku were practically unknown. The real understanding of his poetic work came only in the XX century. The skill of the romantic Buson consisted in the fact that in three lines he was able to contain an entire story, giving everyday events and phenomena a unique sophistication and rigor.

The last major poet of feudal Japan was Kobayashi Issa (1763-1827), a poet who learned the art of creating haiku from one of Basho's followers. His biography is deeply tragic: he knew need and deprivation, having reached prosperity only in old age, survived the death of a child... And at the same time, his poetry is not devoid of folk humor, optimism and deep love for people.

The circulation is 999 numbered copies. Each book has a unique number and a personal stamp of the master.
