Book Smug Senryu   Three

  • Author : Bruce Howard Hamilton
  • Publisher : iUniverse
  • Release : 2012-01-04
  • ISBN : 9781469700298
  • Pages : 128 pages

Download or read book Smug Senryu Three written by Bruce Howard Hamilton and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2012-01-04 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: SMUG SENRYU ~~3~~ -- a collection of 240 syllabic haikulike 'itemettes' -- is intended to be a quite jokey and fun continuation of the same author's previous SMUG SENRYU ~~2.~~ "The essential smugness" may be seen in how the author of this relatively new aggregation strove to cling absolutely to rigorous aspects of **5-7-5** in terms of counting the included syllables; also, each of the individual brief items might seem to insist on being only one basic English sentence. That no wish or attempt ever existed to honor some of Basho's supposedly absolute haiku approaches may seem at least hugely to validate the modern and perhaps generic title aspect "senryu"?

Book Senryu Poems of People

    Book Details:
  • Author : J. C. Brown
  • Publisher : Tuttle Publishing
  • Release : 2012-07-03
  • ISBN : 1462904181
  • Pages : 79 pages

Download or read book Senryu Poems of People written by J. C. Brown and published by Tuttle Publishing. This book was released on 2012-07-03 with total page 79 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a collection of Japanese senryu poetry--a lesser known cousin to haiku poetry. In 1765 Karai Senryu published a selection of tsukeku that reflected his personal taste and humor. This anthology, Yanagidaru, became widely popular and was followed by 22 more of the same title, also compiled by Senryu, and a further 144 volumes compiled by his successors to the tradition. The type of poems Karai chose eventually came to be known as senryu. They did not require inclusion of a seasonal word, as did haiku, which developed from the introductory portion of linked verse. Although senryu were at first written in only seventeen syllables(in lines of five, seven, and five syllables) or fourteen syllables(in lines of seven and seven), these rules became less strictly adhered to as time passed. The main difference between senryu and haiku is one of tone. The meaning and structure of a haiku can be brilliant, but I personally often find them conventionally serious and sentimental, offering few surprises. One has to be a near genius to write good haiku, but almost anyone can write reasonably good senryu; the form seems somehow to have escaped the structural restrictions that bind and, perhaps, limit haiku.

Book Smug Senryu

    Book Details:
  • Author : Bruce Howard Hamilton
  • Publisher : iUniverse
  • Release : 2010-08-26
  • ISBN : 1450244351
  • Pages : 129 pages

Download or read book Smug Senryu written by Bruce Howard Hamilton and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2010-08-26 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: SMUG SENRYU, a collection of 240 syllabic haikulike 'itemettes,' is intended to be very jokey, very fun. The essential smugness may be seen in how the author of the aggregation strove to cling absolutely to rigorous aspects of **5-7-5** in terms of counting the included syllables; also, each of the individual brief items might seem to insist on being only one basic English sentence. That no wish or attempt ever existed to honor some of Basho's supposed haiku approaches may at least hugely justify the modern and perhaps generic title "senryu"?

Book excerpt: This highly practical guide instructs readers on how to write haiku and senryu (the latter, humorous haiku). Haiku and senryu are short, insightful poems that capture the moments of our lives, whether happy or sad. Usually written in one to four lines, these challenging poems for their brevity and thought, are about nature, the seasons, and human nature. This guide dispels the many myths about them and instructs people on reading them with understanding and writing them thoughtfully. It also informs on how and where to get them published. Haiku and senryu are written worldwide in dozens of languages and are growing rapidly in popularity. The book teaches readers the basics and finer points of style and content for beginning and intermediate poets, giving a few hundred examples of excellent published poems, along with analysis of them. Also included, is instruction about haiku and senryu sequences, a series of individual poems with a theme. This guide offers the history behind these forms in the U.S. and in Japan, the latter, where they originated. Further, for educators of all levels and workshop leaders, it contains practical aids, outlines of study, lesson/homework plans, and samples of students' poetry. In addition, the book's highly useful appendices and bibliography guide readers to dozens of resources worldwide, online and in print, to increase their knowledge of the forms and offer publishing, networking, and contest opportunities. The book is written by Charlotte Digregorio, an award-winning author of four other non-fiction books, a prize-winning poet of many forms, including haiku and senryu, and a Pushcart Prize nominee. Digregorio is Midwest Regional Coordinator of the Haiku Society of America. She has been a professor of languages and writing, a writer-in-residence at many schools, a conference speaker nationwide, and a teacher of younger students. She publishes papers in university journals on haiku and senryu, and her poems are often quoted and critiqued in publications. Her poems are exhibited in venues, such as public/academic libraries, cultural centers, art galleries, storefronts, restaurants, coffee and tea houses, and on public transit.
