[IBC] Fwd: [IBC] What is the correct name?
You have opened one of those cans of worms we have
discussed and disected many times in the past. There is no single correct answer to your question. Sensei is an honorific that means teacher in Japanese. It can be used for anyone who teaches. Ranking bonsai practitioners/professionals/hobbists is not an easy thing outside Japan. A hobbist can have considerable knowledge and little formal training. One can have formal training, but if one does not have a good eye, the training is worthless. Many times those who speak or give workshops have a facility with one type of plant, but not others. Master is, in my mind, a title used for one who has done their training under another recognized master. One who has put in the time that can be called an appreticeship, and graduated. This apprenticeship is usually 5 years. This doesn't mean that the work created by a hobbist is less than that of a master. My teachers are my trees. I study with them on an ongoing basis. I look, listen and learn, but I have yet to find a tree I can call master. Or one that can teach me to wire. Kitsune Miko --- "Alejandro Bedini G." wrote: Hi all I know the professional people who doing bonsai in a high level(workshop, teach, demo, congress, lecture) dont like Call or use the word MASTER. What do you think is the correct name to use? A) Teacher B) Artist C) professional D) ???? Best regards, Alejandro. Chile (Chili) South America ____________________ Alejandro Bedini G.
