Small collected works. Basyo Matsuo

The great Japanese poet Matsuo Basyo is rightly considered the creator of the Poetic genre Hike now popular throughout the world. His efforts of three-style from purely game, half-heard poetry gradually turned into high poetic art, imbued with the spirit of Zen-Buddhist philosophy. Basy's work is so multifaceted that it is difficult to reduce to one denominator. The present publication includes works representing different aspects of its amazing talent: numerous poems, travel diaries and prose sketches.
