DESCRIPTION
Japanese Death Poems: Written by Zen Monks and Haiku Poets on the Verge of Death
b"Awonderful introduction the Japanese tradition of ijisei/i, this volume is crammed with exquisite,
spontaneous verse and pithy, often hilarious, descriptions of the eccentric and committed monastics who
wrote the poems."—iTicycle: The Buddhist Review/i/bAlthough the consciousness of death is,
in most cultures, very much a part of life, this is perhaps nowhere more true than in Japan, where the
approach of death has given rise to a centuries-old tradition of writing jisei, or the "deah
poem."Such a poem is often written in the very last moments of the poet's life.Hundreds of
Japanese death poems, many with a commentary describing the circumstances of the poet's death, have
been translated into English here, the vast majority of them for the first time. Compiler Yoel Hoffmann
explores the attitudes and customs surrounding death in historical and present-day Japan and gives
examples of how these have been reflected in the nation's literature in general. The development of
writing jisei is then examined—frm the longing poems of the early nobility and the more
"masuline"verses of the samurai to the satirical death poems of later centuries. Zen Buddhist
ideas about death are also described as a preface to the collection of Chinese death poems by Zen
monks that are also included. Finally, the last section contains three hundred twenty haiku, some of
which have never been assembled before, in translated English and romanized Japanese.
