The Routledge Global Haiku Reader

Editat de James Shea, Grant Caldwell
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 30 iun 2023
The Routledge Global Haiku Reader provides a historical overview and comprehensive examination of haiku across the world in numerous languages, poetic movements, and cultural contexts. Offering an extensive critical perspective, this volume provides leading essays by poets and scholars who explore haiku’s various global developments, demonstrating the form’s complex and sometimes contradictory manifestations from the twentieth century to the present.
The sixteen chapters are carefully organized into categories that reflect the salient areas of practice and study: Haiku in Transit, Haiku and Social Consciousness, Haiku and Experimentation, and The Future of Global Haiku. An insightful introduction surveys haiku’s influence beyond Japan and frames the collection historically and culturally, questioning commonly held assumptions about haiku and laying the groundwork for new ways of seeing the form. Haiku’s elusiveness, its resistance to definition, is partly what keeps it so relevant today, and this book traces the many ways in which this global verse form has evolved.
The Routledge Global Haiku Reader ushers haiku into the twenty-first century in a critically minded and historically informed manner for a new generation of readers and writers and will appeal to students and researchers in Asian studies, literary studies, comparative literature, creative writing, and cultural studies

Recenzii

"This wide-ranging and imaginatively organized collection includes articles by most of the leading practitioners and theorists of global haiku today. It provides a good view of the state of the art now and a sense of how it has developed over the last decades. Highly recommended!" —Janine Beichman, Professor Emerita, Daitō Bunka University
 "This book is a marvel of ideas, debates, scholarly investigations and inspired readings of the phenomenon of the global haiku. These essays show, dramatically, that this tiny poetic form is marked by its capaciousness and by its tenacious hold on the attention of contemporary poets across the world. The haiku’s apparently simple form teases, baffles, and metamorphoses under the varied lights these essays throw on it. Whether the haiku is a mirror (possibly even an x-ray) of its cultural moment, whether it is a dissident form or a sentimental craft best left to amateurs and siloed communities—are the kinds of questions debated here with passion and precision. As a poet, this is the kind of talking-about-poetry that I yearn to read. The point of this book, though, is not to find answers to whether haiku is a global movement or a local movement, a deeply misunderstood Japanese art-form or a ‘spirit’ that all poets can share, but it is to understand and explore the meanings, ideas, values and desires that inhere in such questions. It is that rare event, a scholarly book that will be taken up gratefully by general readers, students, and poets themselves." —Kevin Brophy, Emeritus Professor, University of Melbourne
"An instantly indispensable volume for anyone interested in haiku itself—its own knapsack-journey to far norths, souths, easts, wests, and to deeply human interiors—as well as for anyone interested in the development of current world poetry, whose course was profoundly and permanently altered by haiku's emergence in global translation." —Jane Hirshfield, author of The Heart of Haiku, Ledger, and Ten Windows: How Great Poems Transform the World
"This definitive compilation of essays by haikuists, critics and scholars is destined to transform the understanding and appreciation of the myriad modern offshoots—let alone traditional Japanese taproot—of the world’s most popular verseform. Surveying for the first time the influence of haiku on literary arts around the globe over the past century, from Modernism, Imagism and Surrealism to anti-war verse, indigenous people’s resistance poetry, ecological paean and so on, The Routledge Global Haiku Reader sows the seeds of a truly efflorescent epiphany." —Adam L. Kern, author of The Penguin Book of Haiku
 "The Routledge Global Haiku Reader champions a geopolitically sophisticated approach to haiku studies that cuts through the distortions and exoticisms of the Japan/West binary in which the commentary has been entrenched. The essays span a compelling diversity of haiku situations: compositions in Taiwan and Singapore critical of Japan’s imperialism, by indigenous peoples of America, Japanese-Canadians, or poets in Latin America, Brazil, and Russia. This curiosity, this awareness and exploration of the layered factors of race, myth, and politics as they give impetus to and occasion meaning for haiku poetry is what makes this volume so fresh, so new, and so necessary. This collection blends the dispositions of both poets and scholars to create a commentary that is rigorously informed while insistent upon haiku as a living, active practice that has a present and future." —Arthur Mitchell, Associate Professor, Macalester College
