《茶经》茶事美学略论

ABrief Discussion on theAesthetics of TeaAffairs in"The Classic of Tea"

陆羽作为茶学家的同时也是一名文人,鉴于文人的特殊身份,陆羽在从事茶学活动时也不可避免地将文人视角引入其中,赋予了茶事更多的审美趣味。《茶经》作为陆羽茶学思想的重要载体,在器形、文辞、和谐等方面都体现了陆羽的茶事审美。将“俭德”概念引入茶事,建构起两者之间的联系,赋予饮茶俭德的审美内涵,更是陆羽对于茶文化的重要贡献,影响了国人千年以来的茶事审美。

As a tea scholar,Lu Yu is also a literati.Given his special identity as a literati,he inevitably introduced the perspective of literati into his tea studies,giving tea more aesthetic taste."The Classic of Tea",as an important carrier of Lu Yu's tea studies,reflects his aesthetic taste in tea matters in terms of vessel type,language and harmony.Introducing the concept of"frugality"into tea culture,constructing a connection between them,endowing tea drinking with aesthetic connotations of frugality are important contributions of Lu Yu to tea culture,which also influence the aesthetic taste of Chinese tea for thousands of years.
