An Introduction to Haiku: An Anthology of Poems and Poets from Basho to Shiki by Harold Gould Henderson (Editor). First published in 1958, it analyzes the development of Japanese haiku under the leadership of Basho, Buson, Issa, and Shiki. Includes the Romanized ("Romaji") transliteration of the original Japanese, indicating the sounds of the original poem. Henderson translate mainly into 5-7-5 syllables (heavy compared to the 5-7-5 of the quick Japanese onji) and rhymes the first and last lines (sometimes feels a bit forced). |
