Horst Hammitzsch is one of the great scholars of the Japanese tradition of the Tea Ceremony. This abridged version of his larger work is now recognized along with Okakura's The Book of Tea as the standard presentation on this subject. In short but learned chapters on the Tea Doctrine and its Grand Masters Shuko, Joo, and Rikyu, on the Tea Way and Zen, the Tea-Room, the Tea-Garden and the Tea-Person, the author explains the underlying philosophy of 'perfect imperfection'-and invites all who are willing to find in the quiet simplicity of the tea ceremony the self-surrender that leads to reverence, harmony, and tranquillity.
Dr. Horst Hammitzsch was born in Dresden, Germany, in 1909. A noted scholar of Japan, he studied there for four years and continued his work as a professor of Japanese studies in Germany at the universities of Leipzig, Munich, and Bochum. Dr. Hammitzsch is the translator into German of Kakuzo Okakura's The Book of Tea and numerous monographs and articles on Japanese culture. He lives today in Ennigerloh, West Germany.
