A Brief Exploration of Japanese Poetry
East Asian Studies • Japan • PoetryPrecepted by
Robert Steed
and
Pilar Barrera.
Over the course of this module we will read and explore the work of a few major pre-modern Japanese poets in translation, putting them in their historical, cultural, and religious contexts along the way, but always focusing on the poetry itself. Group discussion is strongly encouraged. Poetry and poets covered will include that of the Manyōshū, Saigyō, Princess Shikishi, and Bashō. Time permitting, we can add to the list.
