Memorandum
in memory of Ozaki Hosai


I have a pleasure to present my English@‚”‚’‚
nslation of the work of Hosai Ozaki (1885-1926)
in this website.

Needless to say, for writing poems of any kind, it
is vitally important to cut off the unnecessary
words regardless of length; long, medium, short,
tiny, or else. Hosai, in his late years, has reached
the utmost limit of this substantial principle.

It is never easy to understand his art, however, I
believe you will find a lucid fresh height of spirit@
finally for yourself by reading his work from time
to time repeatedly.
