Zen Poems Of Everyday Awakening.A Fresh Translation Of Short Poems By The Japanese Zen Poet Ryokan That Reads Well As Modern American Poetry, Accompanied By An Introduction And Commentaries On The Poems From The Translators. Most Of The Existing Translations Are Stiff, Or Sentimental, Or Awkward As Poems In English. This Effort Is Comparable To Gary SnyderS HanShan Poems, Or Thomas MertonS ChuangTzu.One Of The Greatest Poets Of The Edo Period And Certainly One Of The Most Loved, Ryokan Was A Highly Original And Eccentric Master Artist And Zen Practitioner. A Solitary Hermit Who Begged For Food And Lived Among The Poor, Often In Dire Need Himself, His Offbeat Poems Are Moments Of Everyday Awakening, Characterized, As Was His Personality, By Both Austerity And Playfulness. This Translation Aims To Retain RyokanS Charm Without Undue Sentiment Or SaintMaking, Allowing For His Rougher Edges To Appear.
