Station 1 - Prologue I barely had time to sweep the cobwebs from my broken house on the River Sumida before the New Year, but no sooner had the spring mist begun to rise over the field than I wanted to be on the road again to cross the barrier-gate of Shirakawa in due time. The gods seem to have possessed my soul and turned it inside out, and the roadside images seemed to invite me from every corner, so that it was impossible for me to stay idle at home. It was only toward the end of last autumn that I returned from rambling along the coast. darkwing.uoregon.edu /~kohl/basho/1-prologue   (254 words)

[minstrels] Untitled -- Matsuo Basho From Station (Chapter) 23, "Hiraizumi" The transliterated original: natsukusa ya tsuwamonodomo go yume no ato ---- A biography of Basho has appeared previously (#802, "Haiku"); I'd instead like today to talk about _Oku_no_Hosomichi_ and the context for this poem in particular. Decades of brutal civil war had ended almost a century earlier at the decisive battle of Sekigahara; and the shogunate that Tokugawa Ieyasu established at Edo (now Tokyo) was firmly entrenched by the time Basho began writing the _Oku_no_Hosomichi_. www.cs.rice.edu /~ssiyer/minstrels/poems/1259.html   (1320 words)

Matsushima Travel: Matsushima Bay Cruises depart from Matsushima Pier, a 5-10 minute walk from Matsushima Kaigan Station on the JR Senseki Line, and from Shiogama Pier, a 5-10 minute walk from Hon-Shiogama Station, three station ahead of Matsushima Kaigan Station on the same line.

Longer cruises will get you to the more remote areas of Oku-Matsushima which are less spoiled by industrial and urban development. www.japan-guide.com /e/e5101.html   (1320 words)
