This book provides a comprehensive introduction to ikebana and
other forms of Japanese flower culture. Unlike other books on the
subject which focus on practice, the book provides both an academic
discussion of the subject and an introduction to practice. It
examines ikebana and flower culture from anthropological and
sociological perspectives, analyses Japanese aesthetics, customs
and rituals related to flower arrangements, and outlines ikebana
history and the Grand Master Iemoto system. It considers how the
traditional arts are taught in Japan, and links traditional arts to
current issues in today's society, such as gender and class. This
book also covers how to prepare ikebana utensils, preserve flowers
and branches, and how to appreciate arrangements, placing an
emphasis on acknowledging our five senses throughout each stage of
the process. The book will be of interest to a wide range of people
interested in Japanese flower culture - university professors and
students, tourists and people interested in traditional Japanese
arts.
