From the publisher

This is the second volume to be published in the 20-volume set. It includes 114 poems (104 tanka , ten choka ), traditionally considered to be the zoka genre, although some of them can be classified as benka , since they deal with death and sorrow. It also contains two poems in Chinese. The volume has several long introductions (all written in Chinese) to the poems that follow.
