Аннотация
Tee war zunächst Medizin und entwickelte sich dann zu einem Getränk. Im achten Jahrhundert wurde es in China als eine der höflichen Vergnügungen in das Reich der Poesie aufgenommen. Im fünfzehnten Jahrhundert veredelte ihn Japan zu einer Religion der Ästhetik – dem „Teeismus“. Der Teeismus ist ein Kult, der auf der Anbetung des Schönen unter den schmutzigen Gegebenheiten des täglichen Lebens beruht. Er verkörpert Reinheit und Harmonie, das Geheimnis der gegenseitigen Nächstenliebe und die Romantisierung der Gesellschaftsordnung. Er besteht im Wesentlichen in der Anbetung des Unvollkommenen, da es ein zarter Versuch ist, etwas Mögliches in dieser unmöglichen Angelegenheit zu erreichen, die wir das Leben nennen.

Аннотация
An elegant and intellectual work, «The Book of Tea» was written in 1906 by Kakuzo Okakura, a brilliant Japanese man with an early education in English. Through his intimate knowledge of Japanese aesthetics and ability to effectively communicate them to a Western audience, Okakura is able to discuss 'Teaism' and its impact on Japanese culture, thought, and life in an informative and profound way. He develops this theory by explaining the history and universality of the tea ceremony, its inextricable connection to the Tao and Zen religions, and the importance of one's surroundings when taking tea. This essay expounds on simplicity, nature, and art, from paintings to flower arrangements to architecture, and ends with an anecdote about one of the most famous tea masters, Sen no Rikyu. This eloquent work puts readers at ease as it explores beauty and imperfection, the subtleties of austerity, and the philosophies of monks, artists, and gardeners in 'the way of tea.'
