More than
three centuries ago, the seminal haiku poet Matsuo Basho traveled Japan in a
spiritual quest for enlightenment. In this down-to-earth program, haiku
enthusiasts from around the world including award-winning haiku poet and
English teacher Visnja McMaster and haiku translator Judit Vihar, professor
of Japanese studies at Eötvös Loránd University, follow in the master’s
footsteps as they open themselves to the haiku moment at the very places
where Basho himself found inspiration. Excerpts from Basho’s impressions of
his journey, The Narrow Road to the Deep North, are included, as are
haiku written by the trip participants. The therapeutic value of
haiku-writing for traumatized children and adults is also addressed. (45
minutes)
