Cologne: Könemann, 2001. Engelstalige editie over de Ryokan, de traditionele Japanse herberg op het platteland en de daaraan verbonden rituelen. 335 pp. with hundreds of colour illustrations. With annotations, bibliographical notes, glossary, index, general map. The Ryokan - or travellers' inn - was a mainstay of medieval Japan, a place where weary walkers could stop for a night and break their progress until the next day. More than a hotel or even a bed 'n' breakfast, the ryokan offers sanctuary and solitude, at once banishing the bustling outside world and responding the the guests' needs. Over time certain features of the ryokan have become de rigeur and this volume covers all the perquisites for replicating the "style" in one's own domestic arrangement. AS NEW. . Hardcover with dustjacket.
