What is the origin of the haiku
Haiku originated in Japan and has a rich history dating back several centuries. The form evolved from a longer form of collaborative linked-verse poetry known as “renga.” Renga consisted of alternating stanzas of 5-7-5 and 7-7 syllable patterns.
Around the 17th century, the haiku emerged as a standalone poetic form, with the first line of a renga stanza being isolated to create a shorter, independent poem. This new form focused on capturing a single moment or scene in a highly condensed manner, often drawing from nature and human experiences.
The master poet Matsuo Bashō (1644-1694) is one of the most renowned figures associated with haiku. His works elevated the form to a level of deep introspection, using simple language to convey profound emotions and insights. Over time, haiku spread beyond Japan and became appreciated worldwide for its ability to convey much with minimal words.
