Description
 
This book deals with Zen, the human mind, and the haiku of Matsuo Basho (1644 - 1694), the greatest Japanese haiku poet.

Zen masters have a long history of giving teisho - formal, playful, dharma talks -- in which poetry is invoked. In the tradition of teisho on the Han Shan given by earlier masters, Robert Aitken has given talks on the haiku of Basho that go straight to the center of Basho's work. This book shares those talks with all of us: it illuminates the angles and corners of lone-ness and community, plainness and beauty, in the homey, homeless way of Zen. It is a superb book on Basho, real life and poetry all at once.

CONDITION: Soft Cover, USED lightly, VG, 191 pages, 1995
