During the Edo period, insect cages frequently served as a subject matter for poetry, both popular (haikai, senryū and kyōka) and classical (waka, kanshi). Insect cages were associated with autumn, and added a poetic charm to the season. Poems about insect cages typify the Japanese tendency to appreciate nature within the context of daily life. By feeling sympathy with the insect restrained in the cage, the poet or reader could experience a heightened sense of the sadness of the season.}, pages = {51--60}, publisher = {国文学研究資料館}, title = {研究発表 虫籠をめぐる詩歌史管見}, year = {1991}, yomi = {スズキ, ケンイチ} }
