중국당·송대차(茶) 문화에따른도자찻잔변화연구

Abstract

Tea, which has a long-standing history in China, has gradually developed and used in a series of behaviors and cultural activities beyond its drinking function. The generation and evolution of utensils, as one part of the material culture, is restricted by the background of the Times and the usage situations and reflects the relationship between people and object. Tang and Song dynasties of China are prosperity periods for the origin and development of tea culture. As tea culture becomes more and more popular, teacups gradually become a special tea vessel. This paper compared and summarized the characteristics of teacup changes during China's Tang and Song periods. The reasons for the changes in teacups are then explained by placing them in the context of teacup usage and the development tendency of tea culture in those two periods. Teacups from the Tang dynasty to the Song dynasty, there were considerable changes in terms of shapes and structures as well as glazing colors. The differences have a close relationship with changes in the way tea was made and drunk and tea culture trends of development under different social backgrounds as far as tea cultures are concerned. Representing the object to the daily use scenario enables the development of a more multidimensional understanding of ceramic teacup.
