Synopsis
Now available in a gorgeous hardcover slipcase edition, this "object d'art" will be sure to add grace and elegance to tea shelves, coffee tables and bookshelves. A keepsake enjoyed by tea lovers for over a hundred years, The Book of Tea Classic Edition will enhance your enjoyment and understanding of the seemingly simple act of making and drinking tea. In 1906 in turn-of-the-century Boston, a small, esoteric book about tea was written with the intention of being read aloud in the famous salon of Isabella Gardner, Boston's most notorious socialite. It was authored by Okakura Kakuzo, a Japanese philosopher, art expert, and curator. Little known at the time, Kakuzo would emerge as one of the great thinkers of the early 20th century, a genius who was insightful, witty--and greatly responsible for bridging Western and Eastern cultures. Okakura had been taught at a young age to speak English and was more than capable of expressing to Westerners the nuances of tea and the Japanese Tea Ceremony. In The Book of Tea Classic Edition, he discusses such topics as Zen and Taoism, but also the secular aspects of tea and Japanese life. The book emphasizes how Teaism taught the Japanese many things; most importantly, simplicity. Kakuzo argues that tea-induced simplicity affected the culture, art and architecture of Japan. Nearly a century later, Kakuzo's The Book of Tea Classic Edition is still beloved the world over, making it an essential part of any tea enthusiast's collection. Interwoven with a rich history of Japanese tea and its place in Japanese society is a poignant commentary on Asian culture and our ongoing fascination with it, as well as illuminating essays on art, spirituality, poetry, and more. The Book of Tea Classic Edition is a delightful cup of enlightenment from a man far ahead of his time., In 1906 in turn-of-the century Boston, a small, esoteric book about tea was written with the intention of being read aloud in the famous salon of Isabella Gardner.

- *****- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Últimos 6 mesesCompra verificadaThis seller took time to answer very specific questions, which I appreciated. The books arrived exactly as described. The books arrived unharmed -- which was a little bit lucky since the shipping boxes had opened at the seams in shipment. Still, the shipping cost was outstanding -- free! I would work with this seller again.
- *****- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Últimos 6 mesesCompra verificadaAbsolutely amazing seller. Would highly recommend this seller. The pricing of their dvd's is amazing, Retail for this item was $34.95 and I paid less than half. It was a brand new dvd set, still in it's original packaging. My favorite movie of all time, can't believe I got such a fabulous deal on the pricing. Fast delivery only a few days. Thank you magnificent seller. Well be buying from you again in the near future.
- *****- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Últimos 6 mesesCompra verificadaBook shows normal bumps and bruises for a 71 year-old book but is very readable. Package was miss-shipped from the notorious Palmetto, GA sorting facility so delivery took a few extra days and bubble-pak envelope was torn and frayed but the book survives intact. Overall, a very positive transaction.
