Abstract
Around the thirty-fourth year of the Meiji Period, as can be seen in the controversy over interpretations of “Sawagani-no-ku” and other polemic discourses, impressionistic criticism was dominant among the haiku circles. As a result haiku poets were measured and rated in such an extremely subjective fashion. This is why Kyoshi Takahama was severely criticized; his poems so often demanded elaborate interpretations that they “impressed” critics as esoteric.
