Takamura Kôtarô

Takamura Kôtarô (1883-1956) was a crucial innovator of modern Japanese poetry and was perhaps the first to master modern Japanese poetic form. His 1914 book, Dôtei (Journey), from which the poems in this issue are translated, has been immensely influential on the writers who followed him. John G. Peters is a distinuished research professor at the University of North Texas. He has translated Kôtarô's The Chicko Poems (Green Integer).
