Takuboku Ishikawa

Ishikawa, Takuboku

(nom de plume, Takuboku). Born Feb. 20, 1885; died Oct. 28, 1912. Japanese writer and critic.

Ishikawa was a member of the New Poetry Society (Shinshi-sha) headed by Yosano Hiroshi. His first collection of poems, Strivings, appeared in 1905, but it was the collections A Handful of Sand (1910), Whistle: Sound and Instrument (1911), and A Sad Toy (1912) that made his reputation. Ishikawa wrote in the traditional form of the tanka and in free blank verse; he gave the tanka a genuinely democratic content and enriched it with new imagery and rhythms. His poetry ranges from lyrics of love and nature to political verses and from pessimism to faith in a better future. At one time a devotee of anarchism, Ishikawa later came to understand the role of the working class in a socialist revolution. He also wrote novels, including Destiny of a Talent (1906) and Our Group and He (1912). Destitute all his life, Ishikawa died of tuberculosis.
