Taro Aizu, the creator of the poetry ―World Gogyoshi‖
since 2018, continues his work for its dissemination and has
just published the ―THE THIRD ANTHOLOGY OF WORLD
GOGYOSHI‖, which is another new literary production,
another window into the world of culture, spirit, history
that captures the aesthetic, historical and social criteria.
The History of Japanese Literature, which belongs to
the wider field of world culture, will record the publication
of the third anthology of "World Gogyoshi" as well as its
creator, Taro Aizu, because in the name of World Gogyoshi
poetry a legacy is created that is about the defense of hope,
faith in life, respect, love for human beings, the opposition
to violence and war for the harmonious coexistence of
peoples.
The Japanese Poet, Taro Aizu, through his
anthologies, sets up his own channel of communication
using his omnivorous expanded senses with us, as he
promotes not only his country and its poetry but also the
13
wings..
