Refined and verbose Japanese poetry haiku has always been a reflection of the natural world, embodied in the endless change of seasons. A person living an ordinary life, whose five senses are tuned to the constant perception of the beauty of the earth and the sky, flowers and herbs, cicada songs and the sun’s warmth, is the lyrical hero of the genre combining poetry, painting and calligraphy. The authors of the haiku created a kind of poetic calendar, in which space was given for a variety of plants and animals, insects, birds and fish, for household sketches and holidays.
This unique edition offers the reader to look at the world of nature through the prism of Japanese triverses. The book covers the last two seasons of the year - autumn and winter - and contains more than a thousand haiku of the famous classics of the genre translated by the famous orientalist Alexander Arkadyevich Dolin, as well as an application with reflections on the essence of poetic creativity. The design uses numerous engravings and drawings of medieval Japanese authors, as well as paintings by the famous modern master of Japanese Sumi-e painting Oleg Usov. The collection is supplemented by calligraphic works by Stanislav Usov.
