Este ensayo clásico, escrito originalmente en 1906 por Kakuzō Okakura, ofrece una profunda introducción a la cultura y el pensamiento asiático a través de la ceremonia del té. La obra presenta el té no solo como una bebida, sino como un culto basado en la adoración de lo bello y la armonía frente a las vulgaridades de la existencia cotidiana. Publicado por la editorial Rivages en su colección Petite Bibliothèque, este libro explora la relación entre el té, el taoísmo y el zen, destacando cómo esta tradición milenaria inspira pureza y refinamiento. Es una lectura esencial para quienes buscan comprender la estética y la filosofía oriental.
Okakura Kakuzō , also known as Okakura Tenshin (岡倉 天心), was a Japanese scholar and art critic who in the era of Meiji Restoration reform promoted a critical appreciation of traditional forms, customs and beliefs. Outside Japan, he is chiefly renowned for The Book of Tea: A Japanese Harmony of Art, Culture, and the Simple Life (1906). Written in English, and in the wake of the Russo-Japanese War, it decried Western caricaturing of the Japanese, and of Asians more generally, and expressed the fear that Japan gained respect only to the extent that it adopted the barbarities of Western militarism.
