22、ecture on the poet Bash could be a big help to you. As we discussed last time, Bash is known today for his haiku. But did you know that haiku came from an earlier form of poetry called haikai? Thats what Bash was writing in the early part of his career. Now, we dont know a lot about Bashs early life

23、, but we do know he studied poetry with a famous poet in Kyoto. We also know that Chinese poetry and the principles of Taoism had their influence on Bash.

It, it gave, it gave me some real insights into 17th century Japan. But getting back to our topic, haikai poems are groups of verses, verses

25、or paragraphs, you could say, all linked together. They were more like the poems of Shakespeare, for examplefairly long, they were fairly long and with a set formula, or structure. The short haiku form developed from the . from the first verse of the haikai, and Bash had enough haiku published to ge

27、tting back to what I was saying, the haiku developed from the longer haikai, but Bashs most famous books are not collections of haiku. Theyre a theyre in a form called haibun, which is a haiku followed by prose. The books are kind of like collections of essayseach essay beginning with a haiku. Bash

28、wrote these books, he wrote these books while he was traveling, and he did a lot of traveling. In 1689, Bash walked for five months through the villages and mountains north of Edo and along the coast of the Sea of Japan.,To be continued ,Listening 1,During this journey, Bash produced his masterwork,

29、 Narrow Road to a Far Province. The modern poet Miyazawa Kenji said this about the book, “It was as if the very soul of Japan had written it.” The book is a collection of haibun, and Bashs writing reflects the everyday problems of travel, like lying awake at night, lying awake at night in a bed full

30、 of fleas, with a horse making noise outside. Honestly, thats what he wrote about! But the book is also full of insights into nature, life, and deathpretty big themes.

Student 2: Yes, I was, I was wondering . you mentioned that an older form of Japanese poetry called haikai was similar to

37、 Shakespeares poetry. Could you explain that? Professor: Sure. Im glad you asked about that. I didnt want to confuse anyone, because even though Shakespeare was a contemporary of the early Japanese poets who wrote haikai, they didnt have any, they didnt have any influence on each other. In other wor

38、ds, the Japanese poets were not reading Shakespeares poems, or vice versa.,To be continued ,Listening 2,Student 2: So, how are they similar? Professor: The haikai were longer poems, and they followed a very specific formula. Each verse had a certain number of lines, and there was a set number of ver

39、ses in each poem. As an aside, the haikai came from a previous form called renga. That was really formal poetry, whereas haikai, haikai were for the common people to read. But getting back to our topic, Shakespeares sonnets were also fairly long poems with a set number of verses and lines. Student 3

I mean . so, a frog jumps into the water . and?,To be continued ,Listening 2,Professor: Thats a good question, and it takes

41、us back to Bashs influences. Rememberhe read a lot of Chinese poetry, and he learned about Taoism. He thought that nature had lessons to teach us if we sat quietly, if we just sat quietly and listened. He also studied Zen Buddhism. He was a deep thinker, and for him, the haiku reflected the truth th

42、at can be found in nature. Does that help? Student 3: Well, maybe its because Im not Japanese. Professor: That could be. Bashs haiku are well loved in Japan. Just about every person I met there knows at least one Bash haiku.,Listening 2,Viewing the World,Unit 5 A World of Words,History Written in Cl
