The book explores the contours of religious and cultural change in traditional China from the point of view of a commodity, tea. It shows how religious ideas, individuals, and institutions played key roles in the spread and development of tea culture. Nine chapters, based on new research in primary sources composed in Chinese, trace the development of tea drinking from its mythic origins to the late-imperial period (sixteenth to nineteenth centuries), and examine the changes in aesthetics, ritual, science, health, and knowledge which tea brought with it. The book contains many original translations from the Chinese primary sources, including poems devoted to tea, technical manuals on cultivation and processing, and discussions of the properties of tea found in traditional medical literature
