Landscape and Fantasy
The landscape seen by an ancient Japanese poet, Ōtomo no Yakamochi, in the 8th century has a lyrical quality that we today can deeply sympathise with.
Can we overlap the landscape of the ancient waka poems with today's cities?
"The wisteria wave is swaying in the wind,
Its shadow is reflected in the lake.
The water is so clear that I can see stones that shine like a pearl at the bottom."
(At the lake, which has now disappeared. Poetry by Ōtomo no Yakamochi in the 8th Century /The Man'yōshū 19-4199 /Translated by Natsuki Oshiro)
