Seller's Description:
Miyata, Masayuki. New. Text in English, Japanese. Trade paperback (US). Glued binding. 188 p. Contains: Illustrations. Illustrated Japanese Classics. Audience: General/trade. Kodansha USA. Paperback. Book Condition: New. Stated First Edition, Third Printing AB51 In the account which he named The Narrow Road to Oku, Basho makes a journey lasting 150 days, in which he travels, on foot, a distance of 600 ri. This was three hundred years ago, when the average distance covered by travelers was apparently 9 ri per day, so it is clear that Basho, who was forty years old at the time, possessed a remarkably sturdy pair of walking legs. Nowadays with the development of all sorts of means of transportation, travel is guaranteed to be pleasant and convenient in every respect, so it's almost impossible for us to imagine the kind of journey Basho undertook, drifting with the clouds and streams, and lodging under trees and on bare rocks.
