KAICHOON
   Kaichoon (The Sound of the Tide, 1905) is an anthology of translated poetry published by Ueda Bin. It appeared in the literary journals Teikoku Bungaku (Imperial Literature) and Myojo (Venus) and incorporated elements of Italian, English, French, and German poetry. The collection includes translations of works by Dante Gabriel Rossetti, Charles Baudelaire, Paul Verlaine, Heinrich Heine, Robert Browning, Dante, Shakespeare, Stephane Mallarme, and Gabriele d’Annunzio, among others. It served to introduce French symbolism to Japan. Many of its translated poems are still found in Japanese textbooks today.
