Essential BashoSam Hamill; Basho Matsuo; Shambhala
ISBN: 9781570622823
Publisher: Shambhala Pubns Publication Date: 1999 Binding: Hardcover Basho (1644-1694) -- the most revered poet of Japanese literature -- is best known in the West as the author of "Narrow Road to the Interior", a travel diary of his journey through northern Japan. Included here is a masterful translation of this poignant work, as well as three newly translated travel diaries and a selection of over two hundred and fifty of Basho's best haiku. The translator has also provided an introduction detailing Basho's life and work and an essay on the art of haiku. Basho elevated the haiku to an art form of utter simplicity and intense spiritual beauty. His travel diaries of linked prose and haiku created a new genre of writing that inspired generations of Japanese poets. He is well-loved in the West as well: his Narrow Road to the Far North, by Nobuyuki Yuasa (Penguin, 1966), has gone through 21 printings. This new and broader sample of his writings is the perfect introduction to his work. |

The Essential Chuang TzuSam Hamill; Chuang-Tzu; Jerome P Seaton
ISBN: 9781570623363
Publisher: Shambhala Pubns Publication Date: 1998 Binding: Hardcover The ancient Chinese text known as CHUANG TZU has been translated into English many times, but never with the freshness, accessibility, and accuracy of this remarkable rendering--the result of a unique collaboration between one of America's premier poet-translators and a leading Chinese scholar. At turns playful and acerbic, the book presents a philosophy of life that is politically radical and deeply spiritual. |

The Spring of My Life: And Selected HaikuSam Hamill; Issa Kobayashi
ISBN: 9781570621444
Publisher: Shambhala Pubns Publication Date: 1997 Binding: Softcover Issa (1763-1827), along with Basho and Buson, is considered on of the three greatest haiku poets of Japan, known for his attention to poignant detail and for his subtle sense of humor. "Oraga Haru", translated here as "Spring of My life", is Issa's much-loved autobiographical work. Ostensibly a record of the day-to-day events of his life during the year 1819, it is in fact a deeply felt meditation on Issa's entire life, weaving together the simple everyday moments with larger events of other years and imaginary material to create a kind of emblem of the great poet's mind....In addition to "Spring of My Life", the book includes more than 160 of Issa's other haiku, each accompanied by romanized Japanese, so that the reader can appreciate the sound and rhythm of the poems in their original language. |
