15-18 Cruelty and Seclusion


high-definition creative commons posters depicting Cruelty and Seclusion from Kobayashi Issa’s The Spring of My Life together with further information.

This text focuses on poems lamenting cruelty to animals, inspired by a mother crow crying for her caged baby, innocent cranes on hunting grounds, and a nursing doe. It then depicts the author’s cold mountain village on Kurohime Mountain, blending observations of stunted nature with contemplative verses on legend, cuckoos, and the peace of a quiet life.
