Kamo Chomei

    0.04 sec.

Kamo Chomei

(born 1155, Japan—died July 24, 1216, Kyoto) Japanese poet and critic. He is best known for An Account of My Hut (1212), a poetic diary describing his life in seclusion written after he left a court office to take Buddhist orders and become a hermit. His poetry is representative of the best of an age that produced many poets of the first rank. His Nameless Notes (1208/09) is an extremely valuable collection of critical comments, anecdotes, and poetic lore.
