(★)(´PO-0142´ es el mismo libro.／ Westerners have long been fascinated by haiku, the traditional Japanese verse form composed of seventeen syllables. These miniature masterpieces can express a dramatic scene or philosophical idea in a single line of verse. In this collection, haiku poet Yuzuru Miura has selected and translated poems by past masters like Bashoo and Buson, as well as haiku by contemporary poets.／ Fireflies, pheasants, a summer shower, winter snow, camellias --all the favorite haiku subjects are included among the one hundred poems of this impressive new anthology.／ ◆Yuzuru Miura graduated from Waseda University in Tokyo, where he first majored in political science and later switched to English literature. He is now a professor at Chukyo University in Nagoya. His speciality is Anglo-Irish literature, particularly the works of Jonathan Swift.
