Libro Del Té

libro del té

by Kakuzō Okakura

Considered a seminal work on Japanese culture, this book explores the history of the tea ceremony in Japan and its profound influence on Japanese art, philosophy, and way of life. It emphasizes the virtues of simplicity, harmony, and the appreciation of the imperfect and impermanent aspects of existence. Okakura argues that the tea ceremony is not merely a ritual, but a comprehensive expression of Japanese aesthetics and a path to spiritual enlightenment.
