Excerpt from Some Every-Day Folks, Vol. 1 of 3 "I cared little for his sermon," said Mrs. Watford, "but I thought his teeth were singularly beautiful." "Which is easily explained," replied Miss Minnifie, "because the sermon was probably his own, whereas his teeth are not." "Impossible, my love! he is but eight or nine and twenty!" "I know a false tooth when I see it, Jane; much more a whole set. Absolute regularity and snow-like whiteness combined mean Arts, not Nature."

Excerpt from Our Little Gipsy, Vol. 1 of 3: A Novel He looked as supremely indifferent to every trifling occurrence passing around him as it was possible for man to look, and you saw that this was not an affected indifference; he had an air of abstraction, and his manner was most unobtrusive. His valet and his courier gave themselves much greater airs than he. By their consequential manner they endeavoured to make up for the lack of pretension in Sir Charles. Until the valet had begun to feel a little poorly, his every movement had seemed to say, Do you compre hend what a great man is my master? Poor Sir Charles! He was a great man if wealth, if landed property, if the title of baronet could make him so. Prosperity had, as it were, been thrust upon him two fortunes had he fallen into. The second estate only a few years before had come to him, bringing with it the title of baronet. Why did not my poor cousin live to enjoy what to me is almost worthless? Mused Charles Daubigny, when the mournful, or, as some would have deemed it, the joyful, intelligence was first reported to him. Why, continued he, why in Heaven's name must the fool throw away his life? But Sir Alfred must needs throw away his life. He must needs, despite of two several warnings, ride his last steeplechase. A broken rib, a fractured arm had not sufficed to deter. He was determined to make Charles Daubigny a baronet; and here is Sir Charles, his reluctant successor, pacing the deck of the Belgian steamer this stormy August day, feeling how worthless is fortune when the soul is dressed in sorrow.

The Japanese tea ceremony is generally identified with chanoyu and its bowls of whipped, powdered green tea served in surroundings influenced by the tenets of Zen Buddhism. Tea of the Sages is the first English language study of the alternate tea tradition of sencha. At sencha tea gatherings, steeped green leaf tea is prepared in an atmosphere indebted to the humanistic values of the Chinese sages and the materialistic culture of elite Chinese society during the Ming and Qing dynasties. Although sencha once surpassed chanoyu in popularity, it is now overshadowed by chanoyu, despite the existence of more than a hundred sencha schools throughout Japan. This exceptionally well-illustrated volume explores sencha's philosophy and arts from the seventeenth century to the present. Introduced by Chinese merchants and scholar-monks, sencha first gained favor in Japan among devotees of the Chinese literati. By the early nineteenth century, it had become popular with a wide spectrum of urban and rural residents. Some took up sencha as a subversive activity in opposition to the mandated protocol of chanoyu. Others enjoyed sencha because of its connections with elite Chinese culture, knowledge of which indicated intellectual and cultural refinement. Still others relished it simply as a fine tasting beverage. Sencha inspired painters and poets and fostered major advances within craft industries from ceramics to metalwork and basketry. Sencha aficionados, many of whom became serious connoisseurs of Chinese art and antiquities, hosted some of the earliest public art exhibitions. Tea of the Sages opens with a chronological overview of tea in China and its transmission to Japan before situating sencha within the rich milieu of Chinese material culture available in early modern Japan. Subsequent chapters outline the multifaceted history of the formalization of the sencha tea ceremony, drawing upon sources such as treatises and less formal writings as well as analysis of tea gathering records, utensils and their prescribed arrangements, paintings, prints, and sencha architecture.
