永遠に旅を続ける旅人(百代の過客)

'The Narrow Road to the Deep North' (Oku no Hosomichi) is the pinnacle of Japanese travel literature, written by Matsuo Basho during the Genroku era. Creating the extremely famous preface, 'The days and months are travelers of a hundred generations, and the years that come and go are also travelers,' Basho set out for the northern provinces with his disciple Sora, seeking to find life itself within travel, even giving away his own thatched hut in Fukagawa to someone else.
