在國際文壇享有盛譽的日本詩人谷川俊太郎，日前傳出去世消息，享壽92歲。
谷川俊太郎被認為是具有代表性的日本詩人，他在1952年發表首部詩集「二十億光年的孤獨」，以清新的語感受到矚目。他在繪本、翻譯、歌詞、電視劇本等方面都有建樹，亦積極參與國際文壇活動，國內外獲獎無數。
作為國民詩人，谷川俊太郎對日本文藝界影響頗深，其中也包括中島美雪。1972年，中島美雪尚為大學生，作為北海道地區的代表，來到東京參加歌唱比賽。谷川俊太郎是當時的評審之一，他給參賽選手出了一道考題，是他的詩作「我歌唱的理由」（私が歌う理由），中島美雪讀了之後大受震撼，雖然最後在比賽中獲獎，卻仍婉拒出唱片的機會。
中島美雪曾表示谷川俊太郎是她喜歡的作家，兩人也有過幾次對談的紀錄。文學系出身的中島美雪，她的大學畢業論文的題目是「現代詩－谷川俊太郎－」。
谷川俊太郎曾在2014年來台參加「台北詩歌節」，他的一些詩作，包括處女作「二十億光年的孤獨」，在台灣也有翻譯出版。此外，當初影響中島美雪頗深的詩作「我歌唱的理由」，也收錄在台灣發行的「谷川俊太郎詩選」（合作社出版）裡。
According to the reports, the world-renowned Japanese poet Shuntaro Tanikawa (谷川俊太郎) has passed away at the age of 92.
Tanigawa is considered a representative poet in Japan. He published his first poetry book "Two Billion Light Years of Solitude" in 1952 and attracted attention with his fresh writing. He also made achievements in picture books, translations, lyrics, and TV scripts. He participates in international literary activities and has won numerous awards at home and abroad.
As a well-known poet, Tanikawa has a profound influence on the Japanese literary and art circles, including Miyuki Nakajima. In 1972, when Nakajima was still a college student, she came to Tokyo to participate in a singing competition as a representative of Hokkaido region. Tanigawa was one of the judges at the time. Tanigawa gave a test to the contestants, which was his poem "The Reason I Sing" (私が歌う理由). Nakajima was shocked after reading the poem. In the end, she declined the invitation to be a singer, although she won one prize during the competition.
Nakajima once said that Tanigawa is her favorite writer, and the two had several conversations. Nakajima, who graduated from the Department of Literature, titled her graduation thesis "Modern Poetry - Shuntaro Tanigawa -".
Tanigawa came to Taiwan to participate in the Taipei Poetry Festival in 2014. Some of his books, including the debut book "Two Billion Light Years of Loneliness", have been translated into Chinese and published in Taiwan. In addition, "The Reason I Sing", the poem that deeply influenced Nakajima, was included in one book with selected poems by Tanikawa, which is also published in Taiwan.
