| Since the Ministry of Education included Hyakunin isshu in its recommended teaching materials, it has been a frequent theme utilized in various events in elementary to high schools.
We produce Hyakunin isshu cards, printed both in anomalous syllabary and typography, and CDs and cassette tapes of recitation of the poems. We are doing our best to meet new demands of the changing times. |
