This collection of essays explores certain neglected aspects of this haikaimaster's literary and philosophical contributions. Haikai is an art that parodies and often subverts its linguistic, generic, and personal predecessors, and its intersections include imaginative links to the rest of Japanese literature and culture, to Chinese prose and poetry, and to the social, intellectual, and everyday realities of 17th century Tokugawa life. It is these intersections and the creative spaces they generate to which the essays in this collection seek to draw our attention.
