Matsunaga Teitoku (1570-1653) was a haiku writer, considered by R H Blyth to be the most important of Matsuo Bashō's predecessors.[1]

Achievements

Teitoku played a significant role in regularising the rules for Haikai, and in raising its importance and status as a genre.[2] He specialised in elegant wordplay, and in subject-matter reflecting the Chinese classics and waka.[3]

Through his disciples in the Teimon school, he influenced succeeding generations of haiku poets: thus for example Bashō's first haiku teacher, Kigin, came from his school.[4]

Criticism

Teitoku's approach was criticised by the Danrin school for shallowness and excessive wordplay.[5] One member, Bashō himself, is reported to have said of its founder, Nishiyama Sōin, that, if not for him, "we would still be licking the slaver of aged Teitoku".[6]
