Description
The Book of Tea is a beautifully crafted exploration of the Japanese tea ceremony and its place in traditional Japanese life. Written by a Japanese scholar and artist, this book offers a unique insight into the beauty and simplicity of Japanese daily life, which was greatly inspired by teaism. The author, Okakura Kakuzo, sets out to explain the different aspects of the tea ceremony, from its founding to the stages of making and serving the tea. He also delves into the connection between Taoism and Zen Buddhism, and explores the art of flower arranging. This edition features an introduction by Anna Sherman and delightful illustrations by Sayuri Romei, adding to the book's charm and character.
