My daughter, Bonkochan, had a Hyakunin-Isshu competition at her junior high the other day.
The students were divided into several groups and they competed with each other according to the groups. Bonkochan was in the group B, and she won the first place! To tell the truth, however, I wasn't surprised at this news. That's because I was quite certain that she could get the first or second place at her school level. She has been familiar with Hyakunin-Isshu since she was little through Bozu-Mekuri, one of the card games, with me. So she's already had favorite cards. This time, till the competition, she had tried to memorize their poems correctly and had practiced remembering simo-no-ku as soon as possible when she heard kami-no-ku. So, for me, it seemed that she was ready to do the competition and she did it! She said Semimaru was the most favorite card for her, so she didn't want anyone to take the card. Tenchi Emperor, Jito empress, Ono-no-Komachi, Sojo-Henjo are also her favorites. She said she had memorized over 20 poems including her favorites after all and that she had been able to take them, hearing the first line. ◆Hyakunin-Isshu◆ It is 100 poems by 100 Japanese poets of early times. There're 2 sets of 100 cards. On one set, the complete five-lines poems are printed. On the other set, only the last two-lines (simo-no-ku) of each poem appear. The first three-lines are called kami-no-ku. At the card taking game, you spread simo-no-ku cards in front of you. You can't see kami-no-ku on the cards. So you need to remember kami-no-ku when you see the simo-no-ku cards. The key to win the game is to take a simi-no-ku card as soon as possible when you hear the kami-no-ku. →学習仲間を探そう! お気に入りの記事を「いいね!」で応援しよう
