The definitive modern work on the Japanese Tea Tradition,
By
This review is from: Japanese Way of Tea: From Its Origin in China to Sen Rikyu (Paperback)
This scholarly work first examines the discovery & establishment of tea & tea culture in China, in particular the profound influence of Lu Yu in developing a Chinese tea tradition. The remainder of the book is devoted to explaining the development of the peculiarly Japanese tea culture which grew from Chinese beginnings following tea's introduction to Japan from China during the Tang Dynasty. The book is well illustrated with some superb full colour plates, and a number of black & white photographs.The author is the fifteenth generation tea-master entrusted with preserving the history and practising the art of the Japanese tea traditions. |
