Aggiungi al carrelloEdition limited to 100 copies hand printed and bound by Tricia Treacy and signed by Hamill; oblong 8vo, pp. [42]; Hiragana printed in brown; printer's slip laid in at colophon; original maroon cloth, stab-sewn, black paper label on upper cover printed in blind; near fine copy. From the library of Kim Merker. "These poems origina…lly appeared in Only Companion: Japanese Poems of Love and Longing, by Sam Hamill, Shambhala Publications, 1997, and in the Virginia Quarterly Review . The Japanese version was handwritten from Romaji into Hiragana by Eriko Takahashi, and printed on a Vandercook press just as the type, composed by Michael and Winifred Bixler in Monotype Van Dijck. Calligraphic images were printed in relief from ink drawings. The paper is Kozuke, Japanese Mulberry and the cover paper is hand-dyed Fabriano." Saigy? Hosho (1118-1190) took Buddhist vows and became "one of Japan's most renown mountain hermits and a predominate figure in establishing Japan's long tradition of Buddhist nature poetry, a model and inspiration for Basho, Issa, Ryokan, and many others. These poems are translated from his 'waka,' short poems, in lines of 5-7-5-7-7, precursor to the Japanese tanka" (p. 7).

Aggiungi al carrello46 folding leaves. Large 8vo, orig. wrappers, new stitching. [Japan]: [early Edo period]. A collection of poetry by "one of the most influential figures of the Japanese court poetry tradition" (Burton Watson, trans., Saigy?: Poems of a Mountain Home [Columbia: 1991], p. 2). These poems were written at a time of social unrest and… political change, when the imperial system of rule that had characterized the Heian period was superseded by the rule of warrior shoguns in Kamakura. This atmosphere is said to have influenced Saigy?'s poetry. We believe that our book is an edition, possibly abridged, of Sankash? ???, the "Mountain Home Collection," also known as Saigy? h?shi kash?, another title seen on many books and manuscripts. "The poems are arranged by topic, beginning with sections devoted to the four seasons, followed by a group of love poems, and ending with a section entitled 'Miscellaneous' that has apparently been added to at a later date and represents a catchall for poems that do not fit easily into other categories.The Sankash? appears to contain the bulk of Saigy?'s poems written up to about 1180" (Watson, pp. 13-14). "Saigy? started out in life under the name Sat? Norikiyo, the son of a well-to-do warrior family that was a branch of the eminent Fujiwara clan. He was born in 1118 in Kyoto, the capital of Heian period Japan, where his father held a military post. As a young man he received training in the martial arts and became a retainer to the Tokudaiji family, another branch of the Fujiwara clan" (Watson, p. 2). In 1140, Saigy? quit this life to become a Buddhist monk. He assumed the name Saigy?, "Western Journey," probably as a reference to the journey to the Western Paradise of Amida Buddha, where believers would be reborn and where they could more easily attain enlightenment than in this world. Saigy? lived as a recluse for much of the time but also travelled extensively around Japan. He died in 1190. The colophon mentions the year 1348, possibly the date of the manuscript from which our book was copied. Fine copy, but with thumbing, light dampstaining, and some worming. Preserved in a chitsu. ? William R. LaFleur, Awesome Nightfall: The Life, Times, and Poetry of Saig? (Wisdom Publications: 2003)"Japan's foremost 'Buddhist' poet.".
