This collection includes works by Matsuo Basho from different years, which can help the reader to form a clear and precise idea of the stylistics of the man who actually personally created the genre that was to become (and forever remain) a kind of symbol of Japanese poetry - haiku.
Haiku, which before him had been a purely folk, comic, juicy and coarse verse genre - and which he transformed into a brilliantly refined, perfectly technically precise poetic form in which landscape and philosophical lyrics merge into something unified - so that pictures of nature become a kind of illustration for philosophical thought. Basho's poetry is simple and complex at the same time, full of subtle associations, elegant images and almost intuitive hints, harmonious and filled with a purely Zen Buddhist depth of thought - in short, it belongs to the greatest timeless literary masterpieces of mankind.
