4.9/5 (20272 ratings)

Description:Tarō Naka (1922-2014) is one of the most respected poets in post-war Japan, having won several major Japanese poetry prizes. His poetry reflects his life-long exploration of Buddhism, traditional and modern literature, language, art, and philosophy. The poems in this volume are selected from across his poetic output of some seventy years, ranging from his stark, uncompromising depictions of the war and its immediate aftermath to the formal experimentation of the 1965 collection often considered his magnum opus, Music, and The First Emperor, his 2003 nō play. Music: Selected Poems, consisting of strong translations by Andrew Houwen and Chikako Nihei, and including an illuminating introduction by Andrew Houwen, is the first book-length collection of Naka’s work in English.''Naka’s poetry is known for his autonomic, associative, and playful use of the Japanese language, even as it is solidly based on his Buddhist worldview of the void, nothingness. Music, with a full introduction and ample explications will throw light on this singular poetic voice.’ – Hiroaki SatoWe have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
