章节摘录

版权页：   插图：    choose the right tea variety and concept development method. This process canalso operate the other way around. Sometimes, we have to refer to the distinctiveproperties of a certain tea variety to decide on the design concept and select propercomponents for the tea setting. In the selection phase, we have to differentiatebetween function and decoration. Actually, there is never a distinct boundary betweenthe two. For example, even when selecting tea-brewing utensils, we have to considerthe form, color and material of the teaware to make the tea setting pleasing to the eye.We can break down components of the tea setting into different categories, based onwhether they are associated with the visual, audio, tactile, olfactory, and gustatoryexperience, whether it is solid or liquid, whether it has life, whether it is consumptive,as well as its texture, color and form. For example, tea cups may be solid porcelainvessels with pheasant motifs involving the utilization of under-glaze and over-glazetechniques, feeling smooth to the touch. Tea snacks may be lotus-shaped, light bluishin color, made of glutinous rice, sticky and sweet. Flowers may be added to match theoverall ambiance. Of course, this is a rigid example, but it provides a certain approachto understand tea settings. To understand tea settings in this way might give birth to a false assumptionthat a tea setting consists of various elements on different levels. Actually, whateverelements are included in a certain tea setting is solely based on the designer's personalchoice. Sometimes, we might adopt a minimal approach and thus choose onlyfunctional elements. If a tea gathering is designed to share Pu-erh tea that has beenstored for decades, perhaps a male tea ceremony performer may wear a plain gowngreyish in color, without decoration; the table covered with greyish coarse table cloth;teaware of deep grey pottery or Yixing clay teapots featuring simplistic styles; on thewall hangs a calligraphy scroll in clerical script reading "the greatest aroma is aromaless"; the setting involves no use of flowers, incense or zither, or other adornments.In the tea gathering process, attendees are to refrain from chatting. In this seeminglysomber gathering, attendees can concentrate on the Pu-erh without distraction. Infact, this unadorned tea setting is defined by a unique charm. The color palette, theperformer's gown, tablecloth, teaware, tea liquor and scroll create a subtle rhythm.The use of grey tones weakens the visual impact, with no sound save the rubbing offabrics, the shifting of teaware, and the flowing of tea. In this way, the aroma and tasteof the tea become the dominant factor, lingering in the tea drinkers' mind.

《中国茶书(英文版)》作者罗家霖学的是美术史，专攻的是伊斯兰美术，又是陆羽茶会的泡茶师。爱茶，懂茶，视茶都有一缕灵魂。他说：“常有人说最完好的人生是拥有三段恋情，如果用茶类相比拟的话，绿茶是懵懂清新的初恋，乌龙是让你懂得爱与被爱的最淋漓的恋情，而红茶则是陪你进入稳定婚姻关系的另一半。至于普洱，它似乎代表了这之外的第四种情感，如同每个人都会有的那一位红颜或蓝颜知己，你对它的情愫介乎于亲情、友情与爱情之间。你们的结识并非是因为当初它是喧嚣舞池里或元宵花灯下让你怦然心动的那一个，你甚至不能记得与它相遇的具体时间。我不想说它是你悠长时日中最不能或缺的那一个，但随着光阴流转，岁月荏苒，慢慢地它会成为最懂你的心情、最能让你释怀、最无关现实名利的那一个。”不牵强，不功利地，读《中国茶书(英文版)》吧。

•   文字简明易懂（包括翻译），适合零基础。建议更名为“Chinese Tea Book for Beginners” 。因为有一些不错的图片、不错的排版和装帧，可以给三分。若有第二本，建议就一些问题进行深入讨论，以及在第三本更增加一些“无形”的内容，从而给丛书以更丰富的内容和更深邃的内涵。
