EUROPÄISCHE TEEKULTUR HEUTE Diplomarbeit EUROPÄISCHE TEEKULTUR HEUTE Diplomarbeit zur Erlangung des akademischen Grades einer Magistra der Philosophie an der Karl-Franzens-Universität Graz vorgelegt von Ingrid PUSTER am Institut für Volkskunde und Kulturanthropologie Begutachter: Univ.-Doz. Dr. tit. Univ. Prof. Günther Jontes Graz, 2011 0 VORWORT Die vorliegende Diplomarbeit entstand in der Zeit von September 2009 bis Dezember 2010 am Institut für Volkskunde und Kulturanthropologie (Vorstand: Univ. Prof. Dr. Johanna Rolshoven) an der Karl-Franzens-Universität Graz. Mein besonderer Dank gilt Herrn Univ. Prof. Dr. Günther Jontes, der mir diese Diplomarbeit ermöglicht hat. Seine beeindruckende Fachbibliothek zum Thema Tee und sein große Wissen, hat mein Interesse an dieser Arbeit bestärkt. Durch die bemühte Betreuung und Unterstützung wurden mir wissenschaftliche Inhalte vermittelt. Ganz besonders möchte ich mich bei meiner Familie bedanken, insbesondere bei meinem Ehemann Fritz, der mir all die Jahre ein verständnisvoller und geduldiger Begleiter war. Ohne seine beispiellose Rücksichtnahme hätte ich dieses Studium nicht vollenden können. Meine Kinder Melanie und Julia will ich darin bestärken, dass man ein Ziel nie aus den Augen verlieren soll und mit viel Einsatz auch Außergewöhnliches schafft. 1 1.

  • Voices of the Hut 小亭發聲 本 月
    Voices of the Hut 小亭發聲 Art of the Month 茶人: Lee Ann Hilbrich 本 Since December, Lee Ann has been writing about and painting her impressions of each and every Tea 月 of the Month. We find it so inspiring that our en- velopes are behind such creativity each month, and 藝 wonder how many of you are also using the crests of these monthly waves to go from the bowl to some 術 kind of artwork! October 2016: Elevation, Red Tea (活力舒醒) This was the tea I received in my very first Global Tea Hut shipment. I feel very blessed that this was my starting tea. Since I felt like I was learning a new language and just becoming awake to the way of Tea, reading that I could put the leaves in a bowl to brew and drink was just what I needed. Serendipitously, I had just made a bowl at my first-ever pottery wheel class, something I had always wanted to try. It was harder than I thought and the bowl was a weird size and I almost got rid of it as I had no clue what I would use it for until I discovered bowl tea. Experiencing the tea in that handmade bowl, and reading through the high-quality “Tea & Tao Magazine,” full of po- ems, artful images and inspiring new ways to think about elevating tea, I was captivated. I never meant to start creating art to go along with the tea each month; it’s just that I was so inspired by the tea itself and the amazing articles and photography in the magazine.

    Ten Good Reasons to drink Green Green TeaTM 1. Helps save the world! Green Green TeaTM is Carbon Neutral which makes it environmentally Green as well as Green in variety! 2. Tastes great Tastes great as is made with some of the world’s best quality Chun Mee leaves and is presented in a loose tea bag which means that water can seep into the bag and move throughthrough the tea perfectly – as good as loose tea but without the mess or the need for a strainer! 3. So easy to make! • Use one tea bag per cup • Fill a kettle with cold water and bring to a boil • After unplugging the kettle, allow it to stand for up to 3 minutes • Pour the heated water over the tea bag, and allow it to steep for up to 3 minutes then remove the bag • Sit comfortably, sip and enjoy! • You can then reuse the same tea bag up to 3 times, each of which will give a lighter and sweeter tasting tea 4. Just a touch of caffeine Green Green TeaTM contains the least caffeine of all teas. But remember a little is still good as we all need a little kick start from time to time. 5. Makes you devastatingly attractive Did you know that Green Green TeaTM can help you lose weight by helping to burn fat and calories? It contains a high concentration of catechin polyphenols. These compounds work with other chemicals to create heat in the body which in turn burns fuel such as fat. Drinking green tea regularly can therefore help with weight loss and it has even been reported to help burn an extra 78 calories a day by boosting metabolism.
