context_page_description: Shigitatsu-an is a haikai dojo in Ōiso, Kanagawa, Japan, where people learn haiku poetry from the master there or from each other. It is one of the three important such dojo, the other two being Rakushi-sha in Sagano, Kyoto, and Mumei-an in Ōtsu, Shiga.
  Shigitasu-an was built in 1664 by Sōsetsu as a humble hut on the rivulet, Shigitatsu-sawa, Ōiso, where the 12th century waka poet, monk Saigyō, was said to write one of his most famous poems which was later included in the Shin Kokin Wakashū:
  Original Japanese:
  こころなき 身にもあはれは 知られけり
  鴫立沢の秋の夕暮
  In Romaji:
  Kokoro naki mi nimo aware wa shirare keri
  Shigitatsu-sawa no aki no yūgure
  Translation:
  Known to me who has denied joy and sorrow of this world is
  The autumn scene of the rivulet where sandpipers walk at dusk.
  In 1694, Michikaze Ōyodo became the master at Shigitatsu-an. In 1768, it was re-established by Chōsui Shirai. Currently, Yūko Kagiwada is the 22nd master.
  Shigitatsu-an was built on Tokiado, the main thoroughfare between Edo and Kyoto, which is now National Route 1. There stands a stele erected by Oiso Town that the word "Shōnan" was first mentioned by Sosetsu introducing Shigitatsu-an to the passers-by.
