Abstract

Takahashi Yoshio's position in Japan's modern tea ceremony is important. TaishomeikiKan and KinseiDouguIdousi, the masterpieces of his compilation of Japanese tea utensils at the time, have an important position in both tea utensils and art. After the Meiji Restoration, Japan had a strong tendency to break off the old practice and pursue practicality. Art was also dealt with from a practical point of view. Takahashi Yoshio', a student of Fukuzawa Yukichi, a strong enlightenment theorist of Japan, took the lead in the modernization of Japan more than anyone else. When it comes to the tea ceremony, however, it is recognized as a unique Japanese tradition that must be observed. Nevertheless, emphasizing the financial and political utility of the tea ceremony and utensils helps match the modern and traditional tea ceremony of the Meiji Restoration.
