are the last two verses of Sôseki's last kanshi collection. Even those scholoars who hitherto emphasized Sôseki's literary "motto" sokuten kyoshi (to follow the Way of Heaven and forsake the self) attach great importance to these two verses. But no thorough explanation concerning their relation has been given so far.
As for 'haku un no gin '（a song of white clouds) it might very well be possible that, in addition to the technique for writing kanshi ,"shiro" is used as an epithet before "kumo" to heighten the literary effect. Accordingly, I did not confine myself to the idea of sokuten kyoshi or the phrase "haku un", but examined Sôseki's kanshi with the word "kumo" in mind. This paper presents one part of the results.
Sôseki wrote 208 kanshi. The use of "kumo" in his kanshi begins as scenery depiction, but as Sôseki's meditation deepens,"kumo" shifts towards a symbolic meaning. That is to say, while being conscious of the actual world, he uses "kumo" as a construct of imagination, thus seeking consolation in it and committing his aspirations to it.
It is noteworthy that "kumo" plays the same role in Sôseki's novel "Sanshirô" as it does in his kanshi. For Sanshirô, the main character of the novel,"kumo" is the symbol for the object of his longing, i.e. Mineko. Furthermore, through the appearance of "kumo" one can see how Sanshirô's feelings for Mineko change and deepen.
Thus in the symbol of "kumo", which stands for an object of aspiration, we can detect the point which Sôseki's kanshi and his novel "Sanshirô" have in common. It seems that as long as the literary genre is different, i.e., kanshi and the novel, their connection has not received serious consideration. By focusing on the word "kumo" it becomes clear, however, that there exists a connection between Sôseki's kanshi and his novels, namely, in the function of the symbol "kumo".},
