Abstract

This paper proposes to show some experimentation on Brazilian literature during the XX century, especially the poetry which had a relationship with the Japanese poetic tradition. The methodology that we adopted is the bibliographic research. The authors who subsidize our study will be: Paulo Franchetti, H. Masuda Goga, Paulo Leminski, Roland Barthes, Haruo Shirane e Teruko Oda. The focus of our investigation is on the poems of Guilherme de Almeida, Olga Savary and Paulo Leminski who related and maintained the poetical effects and techniques of traditional haiku. So, by the approaches on the traditional haiku, we will point some configurations which was helped these poets to create new forms for Brazilian haiku. On our analysis, we detached the metrics schemes and the elite moment by Guilherme de Almeida, the dialog of Paulo Leminski with the Matsuo Basho’s aesthetic procedures, that produces the haiku effect on Portuguese language, and the addition of a fourth verse on the Olga Savary’s poems to extend the effect of haiku on the language.
