(★)([英文版]茶の湯 : わび茶の心とかたち／ Why is the tea-room entrance, or ´nijiriguchi´, so narrow? How did the practice of ´passing the bowl´, or ´mawashinomi´, come about? And what hidden meaning lies behind the ritual purification of hands and mouth, or ´choozu´?／ Chanoyu, the art of preparing tea, developed against a backdrop of social turmoil in late medieval Japan. Through the singular figure of Sen no Rikyuu, it found expression as ´wabi-cha´, or wabi tea, the foundation of Japanese tea culture today. Here, scholar and curator Kumakura Isao investigates the unique cultural value of tea. He examines its rituals and behaviors, elaborates its structure, spaces, and style, and delves into the history of everything from the tea whisk to the tea room itself. Drawing on folklore studies and performing-arts history, Kumakura develops a new perspective on Japan´s culture of tea.／ ▼CONTENTS／ ●CHAPTER 1 : THE CREATION OF WABI-CHA／ Idiosyncratic Culture(Solitary Chanoyu／The Singularity of Japanese Culture／Japan and Korea／The Place of Sen no Rikyuu)／ ´Nijiriguchi´ and ´Mawashinomi´ : The Crawl-through Entrance and Passing the Bowl (The Birth of the Crawl-through Entrance／Passing the Bowl) ●CHAPTER 2 : BREAKING AWAY FROM THE MEDIEVAL／ The Structure of a Tea Gathering (Chakai) (Letters on Drinking Tea : ´Kissa oorai´／The Discarded After-Gathering Stage) The Tea-Room Space (A Mountain Sanctuary in the City／Garden Approach (Roji) Practices／Seclusion) Why Is Tea Preparation Called ´Temae´?
