O NAMA

Putujuće haiku društvo (PHD) je osnovano 17. aprila 2006. godine od strane koautora zbirke haiku pesama «Odškrinuta vrata», koji su u periodu od 2. jula 2004. do 24. novembra 2005. godine u vidu «haiku karavana» promovisali knjigu u deset gradova u zemlji i u dva grada u inostranstvu.
Cilj Putujućeg haiku društva je popularizacija ove tradicionalne japanske pesničke forme gde god je to moguće – samostalno, ili uz pomoć haiku pesnika i haiku prijatelja.
Svoje aktivnosti članovi PHD-a obeležavaju izdavanjem svog glasila: PHD – glasnika.
PHD bibliografija:
10 brojeva Glasnika PHD-a; "Novogodišnja noć'' – zbirka haiku pesama (Sfera/PHD, 2007) i ''Tragovi na prašnjavom nebu'' – zbirka Glasnika PHD-a iz 2006 (CEP/Sfera/PHD, 2007/2010), ''Sjaj ravnice'' - Ženska haiku grupa (Sfera/PHD, 2008), “Beli krin” – Ivanka Madjor Milivojša (Sfera/PHD, 2011), “Moj omiljeni haiku” (CEP/Sfera/PHD, 2012).
Osnivači Putujućeg haiku društva su: Goran Poletan, Zoran Antonić, Branislav Đorđević, Vitomir Miletić – Witata i Aleksandar Obrovski.

ABOUT US

Travelling Haiku Fellowship (THF) was founded on April 17th 2006 by the co-authors of the book “A Slightly Open Door” - a collection of haiku poems. From July 2nd 2004 till November 24th 2005, its members were working as a “haiku caravan” on the promotion of the book in ten cities in their country and two cities abroad.
The aim of the Travelling Haiku Society is to make these traditional Japanese poems better known wherever it is possible – on their own or with the help of haiku poets and haiku friends.
Members of the THF announce their activities in their own publication: the THF – journal.
The founders of the Travelling Haiku Fellowship are: Goran Poletan, Zoran Antonic, Branislav Djordjevic, Vitomir Miletic – Vitata and Aleksandar Obrovski.
