About this product
Art. : 333-26

"The Book of Tea" is an essay full of deep thoughts and no less deep feelings, dedicated to the role of tea and the cult of tiism created around it in the ethics and aesthetics of Japan. Okakura explains the connection of Tiism with both Zen Buddhism and Taoism, as well as with the secular aspects of Japanese life. The book emphasizes that Tiism taught the Japanese a lot, and most importantly, simplicity. According to Okakura, almost everything is influenced by this impeccable simplicity of the tea ceremony: art and architecture, culture and customs, morality and the attitude of an oriental person.

Written more than a century ago, the Book of Tea is still loved and understood all over the world. Kakuzo was not just a connoisseur of art, but, like every Japanese, he was an artist and an artist, so his educational essay is certainly full of artistic images, subtle humor, deep philosophy and endless love for people. In this book, the rules of creating a tea room, the subtleties of the tea ceremony and the ways of arranging flowers, the features of architecture and painting, the main principles of understanding art and the originality of Oriental literature are intertwined with interpretations and postulates from the works of Confucius, Lao Tzu, Buddha, with the legends of China and Japan, with stories from the lives of famous warriors, tea masters and the great rulers of the East. Reading the Book of Tea, one can not only understand the basic ideas of Eastern teachings, but also feel the delightful elegance and amazing poetry of the eastern perception of the world.

The circulation is 999 numbered copies. Each book has a unique number and a personal stamp of the master.
