As part of the argument which considers the discursive spaces of the 17th century to the 20th century as continuous, this paper treated the waka poetics in the 18th and the 19th centuries from the perspective of Romaticism defined as a movement in which self-transcendence was regarded as a means of meeting with one's essential self, using the discourses of Hakushu and Sakutaro as mirrors. In brief, Mabuchi found in the Ancient age projections of the original type, while Norinaga opened the way for placing the original type in the present. Roan, Kageki and Kotomichi, on the other hand, sought to cause the transcendental action through the temporal and spatial difference in the present.
