Abstract
Buson Yosa is a famous haiku poet and painter of the Edo period. In his haiku, there are fourteen haiku that include the word “otonashi (soundless)”. But in the haiku of Matsuo Basho who is similarly the representative haiku poet of the Edo period, there is no example of “otonashi(soundless)”. We want to clarify the purpose that Buson used a lot of this word, and the characteristic of the haiku that include the word. In addition, because the word ”otonashi (soundless)” usually express “quiet”, we also want to discuss the haiku that deny the thing that emit sound, the haiku that enhances quiet by a sound that can be heard, and last the haiku that include the word that express quiet like “shizuka(quiet)”.irst in the chapter 2, we discuss the haiku that include the word “otonashi (soundless)” or “koenashi (voiceless)”. We classify these haiku into “there is no sound of rain”,” there is no sound of water”,” there is no sound of wind” et cetera. In the chapter 3, we discuss the haiku that deny the thing that emit sound. We classify these haiku into the haiku that relate to an animal such as bush warbler or a deer, the haiku that relate to personnel affairs like “song” “iwanu (do not say)” “kikanu(do not hear)”. In the chapter 4, we discuss the haiku that enhances quiet by a sound that can be heard. We classify these haiku into “animals ” and “the others ”. In the chapter 5, we discuss the haiku t included the word that express quiet like “shizuka (quiet)” or “loneliness”. We classify these haiku into the haiku that describe “the human movement”, “the change of the things” and “the stationary existence”.uson is not only a haiku poet but also a painter. He can describe the thing which remails stationary in quiet like the screen of the image. In addition, he catches moving things and changing things surely delicately in stillness. He recognizes beauty of the quiet and took it in in a haiku and wrote it.
