Product Description
For a generation adjusting painfully to the demands of a modern day industrial and commercial society, Asia came to signify an different vision of the good existence: aesthetically austere, socially aristocratic, and imbued with spirituality. The Guide of Tea was originally written in English and sought to deal with the inchoate yearnings of disaffected Westerners. In a flash of inspiration, Okakura saw that the formal tea get together as practiced in New England was a distant cousin of the Japanese tea ceremony, and that East and West had as a result \"met in the tea-cup.\"
