Beschreibung
As he approached his 50s, Baisao abandoned the life of a Buddhist priest to sell tea and wander the countryside around Kyoto, Japan. He became a friend and confidante of many of 18th-century Japan's most celebrated artists and intellectuals; though he would never consider himself a zen master, the people who sought him out for a cup of tea treated him with great respect. As a poet, he equaled some of the best of his age. Norman Waddell's biography of this obscure Japanese poet gives insight into the man and the society which surrounded him; also includes translations of all known Baisao poems and other writings.
