Book Haiku for a Season   Haiku Per Una Stagione

Download or read book Haiku for a Season Haiku Per Una Stagione written by Andrea Zanzotto and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2012-10-27 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Andrea Zanzotto is one of the most important and acclaimed poets of postwar Italy. This collection of ninety-one pseudo-haiku in English and Italian—written over several months during 1984 and then revised slowly over the years—confirms his commitment to experimentation throughout his life. Haiku for a Season represents a multilevel experiment for Zanzotto: first, to compose poetry bilingually; and second, to write in a form foreign to Western poetry. The volume traces the life of a woman from youth to adulthood, using the seasons and the varying landscape as a mirror to reflect her growth and changing attitudes and perceptions. With a lifelong interest in the intersections of nature and culture, Zanzotto displays here his usual precise and surprising sense of the living world. These never-before-published original poems in English appear alongside their Italian versions—not strict translations but parallel texts that can be read separately or in conjunction with the originals. As a sequence of interlinked poems, Haiku for a Season reveals Zanzotto also as a master poet of minimalism. Zanzotto’s recent death is a blow to world poetry, and the publication of this book, the last that he approved in manuscript, will be an event in both the United States and in Italy.

  • Release : 2019
  • ISBN : 9781091344129
  • Pages : 71 pages

Download or read book Haiku Ice written by P. J. Reed and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 71 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Haiku Ice is the fourth part in my series of haiku collections exploring the four different seasons. Each collection explores how the different seasons affect the woods, fields, hedgerows, plants, and animals which inhabit the beautiful Devonian countryside. Above all, Haiku Ice is a celebration of winter. This collection explores the magical transformations, discoveries, and interactions with nature as winter tightens her grip over the sleeping landscape. The world in winter is an enchanted place. I do not think there can be anything more magical than watching snow fall by candlelight listening to Vivaldi's Four Seasons. Winter is also the time of solitude and reflection as people and animals shelter from the cold and a wintry quietness settles on the frozen countryside. I read my poetry at many events and one of the major pieces of feedback I have received was that people were fascinated to hear the story behind the haiku. Therefore, scattered throughout this collection are my reminiscences of how some of the following haiku were written. Above all, Haiku Ice is a memory of my Devonian winters. Pictures of winters recorded as haiku for everyone to experience and enjoy.

  • Author : Jack Kerouac
  • Publisher : Penguin
  • Release : 2013-04-01
  • ISBN : 1101664886
  • Pages : 243 pages

Download or read book Book of Haikus written by Jack Kerouac and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2013-04-01 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A compact collection of more than 500 poems from Jack Kerouac that reveal a lesser known but important side of his literary legacy “Above all, a haiku must be very simple and free of all poetic trickery and make a little picture and yet be as airy and graceful as a Vivaldi pastorella.”—Jack Kerouac Renowned for his groundbreaking Beat Generation novel On the Road, Jack Kerouac was also a master of the haiku, the three-line, seventeen-syllable Japanese poetic form. Following the tradition of Basho, Buson, Shiki, Issa, and other poets, Kerouac experimented with this centuries-old genre, taking it beyond strict syllable counts into what he believed was the form’s essence. He incorporated his “American” haiku in novels and in his correspondence, notebooks, journals, sketchbooks, and recordings. In Book of Haikus, Kerouac scholar Regina Weinreich has supplemented a core haiku manuscript from Kerouac’s archives with a generous selection of the rest of his haiku, from both published and unpublished sources.

  • Publisher : Independently Published
  • Release : 2021-10-27
  • ISBN :
  • Pages : 258 pages

Download or read book Haikus of Spring in Princeton written by Mayumi Itoh and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2021-10-27 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This unique bilingual haiku anthology is a product of the students at the Princeton Adult School, who took the Haiku Writing Class in the Spring Semester 2021. The area surrounding Princeton abounds with wildlife-both fauna and flora-offering an ideal environment to admire and explore nature. For instance, this locale, an enclave of the Delaware Raritan Canal State Park of New Jersey, is a home to the Princeton Bald Eagle. Watching how the eagle couple has raised their young against the vagaries of weather--including snowstorms in winter and spring, as well as hurricanes in summer and autumn (one of their nests was destroyed by Hurricane Sandy in 2012)--is not only a blessing in itself, but is also an inspiration to write poetry in general and haiku in particular. This collection contains 105 haikus featuring spring and presents each haiku in both English and Japanese so that readers can appreciate it in two languages. The chapters are divided according to the seven categories of haiku: Season/Weather; Heaven; Earth; Life; Events/Observances; Fauna; and Flora. Through this collection, readers can stroll and enjoy the abundant nature in the Greater Princeton area.
