	Renga
		From the Japanese, renga is a extended linked poem, as opposed to renku[?] which is linked verse.
		An ancient form, haiku may be seen as the first part of a renga poem, broken off as a separate form about 500 years ago.
		Renga is popular on the internet, the subject of various chat groups.

	Renga (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		A great part of the fun of renga is the surprise, the imaginative leaps and tangents explored along the way.
		Classical renga have more guidelines than we can reasonably go into here, but we should mention that traditionally, the moon is mentioned in links 5, 14, and 29 of a Kasen renga, and flowers in links 17 and 34.
		Renga is, first and foremost, a social activity, as are many forms in Japanese literature and art, and as such is most often written by two or more collaborators.

	Renga
		A renga is a series of short verses linked into one long poem, composed collaboratively by a group.
		A renga opens with some reference to the season of composition and moves - not necessarily in orderly sequence - through all four seasons, generally ending with a spring verse.
		The overall effect of a renga is a scattered mosaic of images covering a broad spectrum of atmosphere and mood.

	Before Basho
		In the 16th century, instead of renga, it was haikai - humorous poem - that became popular.
		Haikai (haikai-renga) is a poem made of verses of 17 and 14 syllables like renga, but it parodies renga introducing modern vulgar laughter.
		It was traditionally demanded to adopt a kigo (season word: word reffering to a season) in the first verse of renga and haikai.

	Poets.org - Poetry, Poems, Bios & More - Poetic Form: Renga
		Renga, meaning "linked poem," began over seven hundred years ago in Japan to encourage the collaborative composition of poems.
		Linked together, renga were often hundreds of lines long, though the favored length was a 36-line form called a kasen.
		To create a renga, one poet writes the first stanza, which is three lines long with a total of seventeen syllables.

	Explanation of Renga (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Our attempts at Renga are in the form of entertainment, and we do not place every possible restriction on the form, choosing which ones we want to follow when.
		The idea behind the Renga is that one poet writes a section on their own ideas and the next poet adds the next section.
		Renga poems are known to be longer than other types of Japanese poetry and they can reach up to 100 verses.

	Eric S. Theise > Films > Renga
		Renga is a linked-verse form of Japanese poetry that, though still practiced today, reached its peak between the 13th and 16th centuries.
		It is characterized by being a group composition, typically in the presence of judges and an audience, with poets rapidly contributing stanzas such that each new stanza addresses only the previous stanza; there is no overarching plot development, and the overall structure is a chain, not a conventional, linear narrative.
		Renga bears some superficial resemblance to the surrealist game, The Exquisite Corpse, but, particularly in its heyday, renga had numerous rules and conventions that were expected to be followed, or that were acknowledged and honored in their being stretched and broken.

	Renga
		Renga (the term is both singular and plural) have evolved over the years, and the earlier known examples were more concerned with punning and witticism.
		Renga are made by alternating 5-7-5 and 7-7 stanzas throughout the poem.
		A Renga is a poem, a longish one albeit, but it requires the same thought, if not more than other forms of poetry.

	StAnza 2005: the renga
		The renga was one of several options for festival participants, so we divided the day into roughly 4 sessions that people could book in advance or simply drop-in.
		He and I both consider renga to be an extended conversation, and together we managed to keep the talking going throughout the day, no matter how many or how few might be in the renga space at any one time.
		I've written renga in many settings and with many people; this was among the most pleasurable.

	renga_ku
		Aside from the fact that renga are usually longer (typically one hundred stanzas) and renku shorter (typically thirty-six stanzas, with many half that length and even shorter), their differences illustrate two common dichotomies in the arts, particularly in Japan.
		The first is a difference between all the older renga (including the pinnacle of the court-style renga in the work of the fifteenth century master Sôgi and the almost flip haikai no renga of the Danrin school that immediately preceded Bashô) and the renga of Bashô and his followers, which the Japanese now call "renku".
		To the extent that "renga" is the more generic term, it may make sense to keep on using renga in English to refer to a broad range of linked poems loosely based on Japanese models.

	Renga, renga poetry, renga poezija - Karolina Riječka
		In classical RENGA, 3-line and 2-line verses are alternated, beginning with a 3-line verse (a hokku, usually approximating 5-7-5 syllables) resembling haiku and indicating a season.
		The next verse (of 3 lines), composed by the first poet (in a 2-person renga) or by another (in renga written by more than 2 poets), links with the second but not with the first.
		That is one of the chief delights of renga.

	Renga
		As for renga: one of the homophones of ga indeed means "elegance" but this is not the kanji in renga.
		As it turns out, the second kanji of renga is actually ka, the same as in tanka, choka, waka, etc., but as it typical in Japanese, hardens in pronunciation to ga in some combination: it means "poem" or "song." Thus renga is a linked poem, as opposed to renku, a linked verse.
		Renga is a form of linked poetry which evolved from tanka, the oldest Japanese poetry form.

		Renga, translated as “linked verse”;, is a form of poetic game born in 15th century Japan.
		Each verse should in some way reflect one of the accepted themes popular in Japanese poetry of the day, such as seasons (especially change and transience of) and travel (around this time, men were often sent to far-away lands to govern, while their families remained behind as a form of ransom.

	Renga
		Our exposure to what Renga is is very limited; however, to some less "educated" in language, they may find the Renga to be a difficult piece of poetry to understand.
		So far, explaining the Renga origins (already in a plural and singular form) and purpose have been identified; however, explaining how to write the Renga may not be interpreted so easily.
		The Renga begins with the "hokku" (the opening verse of a link verse series) containing the "time of year" when the poem begins.

	Renga
		The idea behind the renga was for my two people on a team to cut up a 4"x4"x8' piece of soft pine and cut it in any wat we wanted for half an hour.
		A lot of the pieces that were on yesterday were now removed because they were a pain in the ass to draw and they had no realavance for the renga.
		After three days of building, rebuilding, and tearing apart different areas, we decided to turn the project counterclockwise a quarter turn and connect the structure with the the other teams renga.

		In presenting this renga I have maintained the "scaffolding" notes to indicate how the writers structured the piece.

		This renga was written over the course of a year.

	Haiku definition - jr
		Our beloved Basho (1644-94) was a renga master of the comic style and for that he was famous also in his day.
		Because of the popularity of renga and the extreme necessity for a really good hokku (starting verse), poets began to collect a backlog of "good" hokku to stick up their sleeves in case anyone asked them to start a renga.
		However, within a renga, Japanese and others commonly refer to themselves or other humans and this aspect is then, more or less (depending on the writer) possible to use in a haiku.

	Note on Renga (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Renga are composed live in a group session.
		This example was composed by a teacher and five students at Bates College in the spring of 1995.
		Thus the renga form is a linear form, but it has a kind of discontinuity/continuity that is different both from classical ideas of order, and from attempts at abrupt or ironic or deconstructive differences.
