Tatsuko Hoshino

Tatsuko Hoshino (Japanese星野 立 子; * November 15, 1903 in Tōkyō, † March 3, 1984 in Kamakura ) was a Japanese haiku poet of the Shōwa period.

Life

Tatsuko Hoshino was born on 15 November 1903 as the second daughter of the poet Takahama Kyoshi haiku in the former district of the city Kojimachi Tōkyō. There she graduated from the Women's University.

After marriage with Hoshino Yoshito (星野 吉人) she was encouraged by her father Kyoshi to write haiku.

She founded the first designed by women haiku magazine, which they gave the name Tamamo (玉 藻, dt " seaweed " ), and was also a member of the circle of the haiku magazine Hototogisu. Together with Teijo Nakamura, Takako Hashimoto and Mitsuhashi Takajo they established the haiku poetry of women. Because of the common first letter of proper names, these four were referred to as the "four T".

After the death of Kyoshi Hoshino Tatsuko was given the task of selecting Haiku for the Asahi newspaper. Also at various other locations, they sought the training of younger generations.
