The Bilingual Encyclopedia of Chanoyu, The Japanese Tea Ceremony


This book is a comprehensive dictionary of chanoyu (the Japanese tea ceremony) in English and Japanese. It contains 3,300 entries covering the entire field of chanoyu (tea ceremony terms, tea utensils, tea rooms, tea masters, tea schools, kaiseki cuisine, history of tea ceremony, etc.), as well as related topics, such as senchado (schools of decocted tea), kodo (incense appreciation), rikka (formal flower arrangement), and Zen Buddhism. More than 900 beautiful photographs and to-the-point illustration are provided. The kao (stylized signatures) of tea masters, essential to authentication, are also listed. In addition to Japanese and English entry indexes, the dictionary includes a unique category-based index, which has made the book truly useful.
