Explanation and Etymology - (詩人) shijin

The Japanese word 詩人 (shijin) is composed of two kanji characters: 詩 (shi) which means "poetry" and 人 (jin) which means "person". Therefore, 詩人 can be translated as "person of poetry" or "poet". The etymology of the word dates back to the Heian period (794-1185), when poetry was a highly valued form of art in the Japanese imperial court. At that time, poets were called uta-shi (poetry writers) or waka-shi (writers of waka, a type of Japanese poetry). It was only in the Kamakura period (1185-1333) that the word 詩人 began to be used to refer to poets. Since then, the word has been used to describe poets of all eras and literary styles.
