Umbrella - Gosan

Japanese: 御傘 - ごさん

A book of haiku formulas. Short for Haikai Gokasa. Written by Matsunaga Teitoku. 10 volumes. Published in 1651 (4th year of the Keian era). It arranges the words used in haiku in alphabetical order and explains sashiai (agreement) and sarikirai (dislike). This theory is a looser version of the formulas used in linked verse. Along with Abura-kasu and Yodogawa, it is known as the "Tei-toku Sanbu-sho" (The Three Teitoku Works), and since it was written by the head of Teimon haiku, it was considered a must-read book for haiku poets of the time and was highly revered. It was a widely circulated book, and revised and expanded versions include Sadamura and Kigin's Gokasa Daizen and his proverbial Gokasa Chogara Sho (1724).

俳諧式目書。『俳諧御傘』の略。松永貞徳著。 10巻。慶安4 (1651) 年刊。俳諧に用いる言葉をいろは順に配列し，指合 (さしあい) ，去嫌 (さりきらい) を説く。その説は連歌の式目をゆるやかにしたものである。『油糟』『淀川』とともに「貞徳三部書」と称され，貞門俳諧の総帥の著作であることから，当時の俳人の必読書とみなされ，尊ばれた。よく流布した書で，増補訂正本に貞室，季吟の『御傘大全』，其諺の『御傘執柄抄』 (1724) などがある。
