East Asian Poetry Online Journal

Take a look at Full Tilt, an online journal of East Asian poetry. Works are in Chinese, Japanese, and Korean, along with English translations.

It's also a very attractive layout, something that I really appreciate.

Haiku and Haikai

About Yahantei

Yahantei was the name that Japanese poet and painter Yosa Buson (1716-1783) assumed when he officially became a haikai master. The name means "Midnight Studio;" it originally belonged to his teacher, Hayano Hajin (1676-1742). Weblog Yahantei is C A Crowley's reflections on haiku, haikai and teaching Japanese literature at a US university.
