- Summary:
- Haiku Landscapes, the latest in the popular series that includes A Haiku Menagerie, A Haiku Garden, and Haiku People, juxtaposes haiku and prints on the theme of the most beautiful landscapes of Japan -- its mountains and forests, rivers and streams, beaches and rugged seascapes. Over 120 haiku by such well-known and beloved poets as Basho, Issa, and Buson are included, as well as 48 full-color and 23 black-and-white reproductions of prints by such masters as Korin, Sekka, and Ike no Taiga. In his introduction, Stephen Addiss writes of the unique Japanese attitude toward nature and the manner in which they incorporate this sensibility into poetry, and briefly reviews the various styles of the art presented.
