Matsuo Basho Haisei (the holy haiku master) Matsuo Basho is the most famous as populer haiku poem composer in the Japanese history. I am not good at these poems though I still know some of his haikus. His style influenced old haiku style used before. The old style of haiku was very casual and it was for fun. However, for a long period of being too casual, hiaku had become valger. Then Basho brought this haiku poem quality up to the higher artistic thing from bottom. Basho was born in Akasaka, Ueno, Iga province (North Western part of Mie prefecture) as the second son of a lower sumurai. Iga is well known as the home land of ninjas for long time. Basho served a higher samurai family to be a proper sumurai. Todo Yoshitada (Sengin) was he who Basho served and learned haikai from. Basho named himself Munefusa as a haiku composer. However, Yoshitada (Sengin) was suddenly died when he was 25 years old, Basho gave up being samurai and left home to be a haoku master for his master. He was 23 years old. Even though Basho lived with commoners, he made artistic poems with using simple vocabularies which are used in daily life. Basho used "Wabi" and "Sabi" in his poems as the basic tone. "Wabi" expresses the attractive point of quietness and "Sabi" expresses the charm of bing an old-fushion. Later, this Sho-fu haikai became main stream of Japanese poems in Edo priod. Basho moved to Edo around 1672.

25. REN The Mechanism Of Linking In Japanese Culture Text of a talk given by Yuko Tanaka, of Hosei University in Tokyo, in 1993 at the Nissan Institute, Oxford University. Discusses the concept of linking, with special emphasis on linked poetry of basho. http://www.lian.com/TANAKA/englishpapers/renhis.htm

REN The mechanism of linking in Japanese culture Yuko Tanaka Hosei University in Tokyo Read in 1993 at Nissan Institute, Oxford University. Introduction Today, I would like to talk about ren . I have been thinking about and doing research on culture in the Edo period(1603 to 1867) in Japan with reference to this term. Ren means "to connect" "to link" and "to gather together", and it refers to a basic mechanism by which a process emerges from the interaction of words, verses or stanzas, sentences, objects, and people in the culture of Japan especially in the Edo period. We can find various examples of ren in the Edo period, a lot of ren groups or the ren of haikai In today's lecture I am going to talk about ren using a number of themes. Firstly is a short explanation of haikai with typical examples ,then the origin and the history of linked poetry, followed by linked themes in a few examples of prose; fourthly linked images in paintings, then renju , which means linked people supporting ren , and finally za which means the place of ren Linked poetry As you know waka is a traditional type of Japanese poetry which has 5-7-5-7-7 syllables, and

Basho Basho, pseudonym of Matsuo Munefusa (1644-94), is considered the master of the haiku form. In his youth Basho was a samurai, but after 1666 he devoted his life to writing poetry. The structure of his haiku reflects the simplicity of his meditative life. When he felt the need for solitude, he withdrew to his basho-an, a hut made of plantain leaves (basho) hence his pseudonym. Influenced by Zen Buddhism, Basho infused a mystical quality into much of his verse and attempted to express universal themes through simple natural images from the harvest moon to the fleas in his cottage. He is revered as the greatest of Japanese poets for his sensitivity and profundity and is particularly noted for his book, Oku-no-hosomichi (Narrow Road to the Interior).

27. Zen Poetry A few poems by three of Japans greatest Zen monkpoets, Ikkyu (1394-1481), basho (1644-1694), and Ryokan (1758-1831). http://www.ship.edu/~cgboeree/zenpoetry.html

These are a few of my favorite poems by three of Japan’s greatest Zen monk-poets, Ikkyu (1394-1481), Basho (1644-1694), and Ryokan (1758-1831). Ikkyu I Hate Incense A master’s handiwork cannot be measured But still priests wag their tongues explaining the “Way” and babbling about “Zen.” This old monk has never cared for false piety And my nose wrinkles at the dark smell of incense before the Buddha. A Fisherman Studying texts and stiff meditation can make you lose your Original Mind. A solitary tune by a fisherman, though, can be an invaluable treasure. Dusk rain on the river, the moon peeking in and out of the clouds; Elegant beyond words, he chants his songs night after night. My Hovel The world before my eyes is wan and wasted, just like me. The earth is decrepit, the sky stormy, all the grass withered. No spring breeze even at this late date, Just winter clouds swallowing up my tiny reed hut. A Meal of Fresh Octopus Lots of arms, just like Kannon the Goddess; Sacrificed for me, garnished with citron, I revere it so! The taste of the sea, just divine!

31. Basho basho's Here and Now . Western writings on haiku freqentry assertthat in basho's view a haiku is what is happening here and now. http://www.st.rim.or.jp/~beck/kametaro/basho.html

Basho's "Here and Now" Western writings on haiku freqentry assert that in Basho's view a haiku is what is happening here and now. But Basho wrote no discource on the principles of haiku and his works contain few traces of theory that we can draw upon to reconstruct his concepts. I have asked for help from colleagues who are spacialists in the literature of Edo Period (1600-1868; Matsuo Basho lived from 1644 to 1694), but none has found a clear statement of "here and now" principle. In my opinion this principle was established long before Basho. It seems to have been regarded as fundamental when haiku were still called haikai. Certainly every one of Basho's haiku testifies to the principle, though he never enunciated it. Mukai Kyorai (1651-1704) was one of the ten major disciples of Basho. His Kyoraisyo is considered the most important work dealing with the principles of haiku in Basho's time, but I cannot find anything in it that bears directly on this topic. Kagami Shiko was another of Basho's ten most important disciples. A chapter called "Sonentei yo-banashi" in his Fukuro-nikki reports a discussion about haiku by Kyorai in which he stated that haiku are concerned with "what is spontaneous on the spot." Shiko added that Basho praised that statement. As a peripheral note, I mention a story about Basho found on page 285, volume IX of the complete works of Basho published by Kadokawa Shoten, (1967):

34. Basho's Haiku What follows are interpretations of basho's works by three editors and translators,three gentlemen that would seem to have the qualifications for the task; RH http://www.haikupoetshut.com/basho1.html

An open mind is the gateway to heaven. soji What follows are interpretations of Basho's works by three editors and translators, three gentlemen that would seem to have the qualifications for the task; R.H.Blyth, Lucien Stryck, and Peter Beilenson. There are also some comments by a fourth,Kenneth Rexroth. I began putting together this list as a means to clarify, for myself, what this lovely art form is all about. Opinions seem to vary wildly about just what constitutes haiku. There doesn't seem to be any "concrete" answers. Mr. Rexroth points out, however, in the preface to "One Hundred Poems from the Japanese" that "the Japanese language is almost as rich in homonyms and ordinary double meanings as is Chinese" and there are engo , "associated words rising from the same concept,occupy a position between our similes and metaphors...". He further speaks of the kake kotoba , a pivot word employed in two senses, even three on rare occasions. Rexroth makes the statement that "The pivot word shades into the pun, and some Japanese poems have so many puns that they may have two or more quite dissimilar meaning." I have also read that the kigo or "season word" is also a metaphor (there's that word again) for the stages of our lives. I guess my point is, if I have to have one, that an absolute statement as to the correct way to write haiku would be practically impossible. I found some of all three of the following interpretations to my liking. Mr. Beilenson attempts to stick with the 5-7-5 format, occassionally to the poems detriment. Stryck on the other hand seems very Spartan in his translations, and in the book his poems are taken from, "On Love and Barley - Haiku of Basho" one of Basho's poems seems to have two interpretations, it is appended to the list below.
