The movement of the hand that blends consumption with virtue is a central theme in Thirst for Empire, an extensive and detailed history of tea by historian Erica Rapaport. How did tea evolve from an obscure "Chinese drink" to a universal drink inspired by cultural traits? In short, the answer revolves around this association by various interest groups as well as by aspiring merchants. While the rich historical record allows us to study how tea itself traveled from East to West, Rapaport focuses on the movement of ideas of tea that were adapted to specific purposes.

The Temperance movement, which began in the 1700s, championed tea as a "cry-but-not-cry" pleasure, and industrialists quickly borrowed this moral argument to argue for free trade in tea (and thus for the opening of markets for textiles). Meanwhile, Christian missionaries found tea "soothed colonial encounters." During World War II, tea service was introduced as a social and patriotic activity to uplift soldiers and refugees.

But it was consumer-driven marketing by importers and retailers, and later by brands, that created the current debates about trade. Early versions of the farm-to-table movement were sparked by anti-China sentiment and concerns about trade deficits, as well as the reality and threat of adulterated tea, including dirt and hedge trimmings. Lipton soon touted its supply chain, originating in British India and overseen by "educated Britons," from "tea garden to tea cup." While tea marketing has always been about direct consumer benefits (health, energy, relaxation), tea drinkers also held the conviction that they were participating in a broader, nobler task of advancing the causes of family, nation, and culture. . . .

The treatment of Lapaport's theme is not so political. Both the market miracle and the darkness of capitalism appear in the complex story of tea, and the complex impact of British colonialism is the same. .. The history of the product is now a product itself: Cotton flowers, salt, cod, sugar, chocolate, paper, milk, etc. are featured. In recent works, cotton, salt, cod, sugar, chocolate, paper, and milk are featured, and ethical marketing is applied to food, "fair trade" clothing, and ecotourism, and is now a product. However, tea is a different world from the fact that black tea is not only a surprising success story that promotes the cause of culture and community, as well as "a tea marketing person in charge of the consumer to the consumer." Is clear.

I've been recommended for tea in several situations, including a British garden party, a Bedwin bonfire, a Turkish carpet shop, and a Japanese tea room. In each case, what was provided was the idea of ​​"friendship, community, respect" rather than a drink, and in each case, the idea has subsequently created reality. It is no exaggeration to say that the tea shop has advanced to the conversation between humans and friendship, especially the sublime cause.

The following excerpts are accompanied by questions. Choose the answer that best suits each question.

For a classic Maya, who lived in southern Mexico and Central America from 250 to 19900, the category of "atoms" did not match humans like us. In other words, humans were "people", but no n-human beings could be "people". In order to explore the gaps in the category between "people" and "people", I examined the image of a very special category depicted in the scenes of ancient Maya's pottery. I looked for an example in which my face (eyes, nose, and mouth combinations) were drawn on the innocent object. .. Let's think about my iPhone, which needs to flush electricity every night, attach a protective bumper, and enjoy communication with other brothers. Does the iPhone have a personality because I pull out resources from me, the owner and connect with me? The answer was "no" for Maya (it wasn't a smartphone, but also many other communication means). No n-humans were not linked to a specific person, and did not bring out their personality from the relationship with humans. .. This is a deep democratic way to understand the world. We are just one of many kinds of human beings living in this world. ...

Maya believed that personality would be "revitalized" by participating in specific social activities through a specific experience of physical needs. For example, among the subjects facing people, individuals are characterized by personal requests (hungry, fatigue, physical proximity, etc.) and the duty of the community (communication, exchange, and rituals). In the images I investigated, for example, you can see objects facing the objects shaken in the hands of people. You can also see people talking to people. The basic elements of this personality are that the human body and sel f-seeks are pointed inside, and the community is expected from the people who are the members of the community, and emphasizes the mutual properties of the community participation. 。 ...

Personality was not common for Maya. The substance was an individual and at the same time, something else. The objects I see indicate that the objects continue to be functional and continue to do what the objects are doing (the stone continues to cut, the incense burner keeps doing smok e-like work). 。 In addition, the Maya visually painted many objects in a way to indicate the class of the material to which they belong. Even more complicated is the incense burner (a sharp decoration, which is made of clay and a sacred saber tree found in this area) is also classified as "a person and a tree." That's it. In the case of these Maya, we are challenging to deny the tw o-sectional opposition, which is our basic perspective. .. Polfilly on the border found in the Mayan world indicates the possibility of living with a specific category of the world.

Without a passport, we cannot travel outside the residence area. You have to wear the same simple clothes. I have to exchange my house every 10 years. I can't avoid work. We all sleep at the same time. There is freedom of religion, but cannot deny that the soul will die with the body. "If you are afraid of punishment, you can only despise social law and habits." . In the era of Mo, many of the people provided richness and safety, so such restrictions would not have been overly unreasonable. However, for modern readers, utopia seems to be based on relentless transparency, suppression of diversity, and privacy restrictions. Utopia provides safety. Utopia is dangerously dystopia in the outside and internal relationship.

Such conclusions will be stronger by selectively verifying the traditions following the more in these points. This is often impossible for humans to fall or become evil. This is achieved by both the system and morals. .. Passion is regulated, and inequality between wealth and discrimination is minimized. Desire, vanity, and imitation are suppressed, equality is often reduced, and wealth is despised. The desire for public power is suppressed. In the first great literary utopia after More, Tonmaso Campanella, the city of the sun (1623), men are forbidden for men until the age of 21 and the age of 19. It is normal to raise children together. For Campanella, this starts at the age of two. A simpler life, a life that follows nature is often broken. People are more similar than they are, from the appearance, perspective, and perspective. In this way, unity, order, and homogeneity are dominant at the expense of individuality and diversity. As J.

But this debate must not be confused with claims that all utopia tends to be dystopia or dystopia. The person who defends this proposition will notice that the relationship here is not close enough. The only way to overturn this claim is to recognize the existence of thousands of successful communities, with a widespread windle and unpleasant harmony as a norm. Here, the immersion of individuals in a group is performed under the agreement (although this is not a problem). It is not a slave, but a spontaneous obedience to the group norms. Harmony is by damaging others.

Liverpool stands in the Premier League to make a record of the club frame

update

Arne Slot updated Riverpool's record of nine wins in the first 10 games, and the club kept the lead in the Saturday England Premier League.

The ninth point of Diogo Iota at Cell Hearst Park defeated Crystal Palace 1-0, looking down on Manchester City's Pep Guardiola and Arsenal's director Michel Alteta.

Citi, who won the championship, won 3-2 to Full Am, and Arsenal, third, won Southampton 3-1. Both are pursuing Liverpool with one difference.

The slot is working lightly to fill the blanks left by Amphield's great general Jurgen Crop.

"I'm very happy. If you know how many great directors have been supported by the great directors, that's also special," said the slot. "But as I said last week, one year, two, three years, three years, five years later, and five years later, I hope that it should not be remembered alone. I want to do something special. "

Liverpool's only defeat under the Dutch commander was a 1-0 shock in a home match against Notingham Forest. Other than that, it was a perfect start for a man who took the ominous mission of crops, such as the Premier League and the Champions League.

This frame is likely to be the main challenger to City and Arsenal, which were first and second in the past two seasons.

Both teams survive with fear of winning at home.

Allison injury

It wasn't all good news for Liverpool as goalkeeper Alisson was substituted in the second half of the match against Palace with a suspected injury.

The Brazil international, who has just returned from a muscle injury, was holding the top of his right foot after the match at Selhurst Park and is likely to miss Brazil's World Cup qualifiers against Chile and Peru.

Argentina midfielder Alexis Mac Allister is also out with a groin injury and is in doubt for Argentina's qualifiers against Venezuela and Bolivia.

HOME RULES

City extended their unbeaten home run to 50 games with a win over Fulham.

The streak dates back to November 2022, when Brentford won 2-1 at the Etihad Stadium thanks to a last-minute strike from Ivan Toney. City lost to Real Madrid in a penalty shootout in last season's Champions League quarter-finals, but the game finished 1-1 after extra time and was not officially counted as a defeat.

John Stones scored a goal to earn a 2-2 draw at Arsenal last month, and on Saturday City fought back after Mateo Kovacic scored two goals and Andreas Pereira had given Fulham an early lead in the 26th minute.

A deflected strike from Kovacic equalized in the 32nd minute and made it 2-1 in the 47th.

Jeremy Doke extended City's lead in the 82nd minute and Fulham's second goal in the 88th minute, for Rodrigo Muniz, set up a tense final.

City's proud record might have been broken if Adama Traore had converted more clear-cut chances in either half.

City are unbeaten in their last 30 league games.
