‖ senryu|ˈsɛnrɪuː|
The name of Karai Senryu (1718–90), a Japanese poet, used to denote a type of Japanese verse, similar in form to haiku but more intentionally humorous or satirical in content and usually without seasonal references.
1938T. Kunitomo Jap. Lit. since 1868 ii. i. 156 His submissive attitude which he likened to the spirit of senryû increased in his later writings. 1958Japan: its Land, People & Culture xiii. 665/2 By applying the rule of 5.7.5. but disregarding other rigid rules senryu (satirical poems) were written in a freer spirit and with humour. 1977G. Grigson Faber Bk. Epigrams & Epitaphs p. viii, Both haiku and senryu are epigrams—if epigram is taken to mean brevity; but a haiku has been defined as expressing a moment of vision into the nature of the world and a senryu as expressing a moment of satirical insight into the nature of ourselves... With us, rather unfortunately, ‘epigram’ has come only to suggest something like senryu, short and sharp. |
