Judging criteria
We will look for:
1. evidence of appreciation of both the renku genre and its triparshva form
2. successful employment of jo-ha-kyu movement
3. effective use of, and variety in, linking techniques
4. a rattling good read
Contest judges
Norman Darlington (proposer of the triparshva form) & Moira Richards, editors and publishers of the forthcoming Journal of Renga & Renku. Both are active in the study and practice of the genre, have served as renku editors for various publications, and led or contributed to renku published in more than two dozen online and print journals around the world.
Why a one-form renku contest?
Every JRR contest will feature a different form of the genre, in order to
a) promote appreciation of the distinctive features of the various forms of the genre and how they can be employed to different ends in the writing of poems, and
b) encourage poets to explore more fully the possibilities of one form, and to appreciate what others do with it.
Why the triparshva form?
With 22 verses, the triparshva is short enough to facilitate remote composition over a reasonable period of time, yet with three sides of 6, 10, and 6 verses respectively, each encompassing one of the jo-ha-kyu modes, the sides are long enough to allow a paced dynamic development in the style of the kasen. Since the publication of the triparshva design in 2005, it has been the successful vehicle of numerous poems by poets on five continents.
