Opium

Carl Hartwich war zu Anfang des 20. Jahrhunderts seiner Zeit weit voraus. Sein Werk "Die menschlichen Genußmittel" von 1911 ist heute nur noch selten antiquarisch und wenn, dann zu horrenden Preisen erhältlich. Der ethnopharmakologische Klassiker dokumentierte früher als alle anderen Bücher psychotrope Pflanzen und Pilze aus der ganzen Welt; zum Teil fragen Fachleute sich bis zum heutigen Tag, wo der Autor all die vielfältigen Informationen ausgegraben hat. Der Nachtschatten Verlag macht mit diesem neu gestalteten Reprint das originale Kapitel zum Thema Opium wieder verfügbar. Mit Informationen zur Abstammung und Geschichte des Schlafmohns, zu Opium in Asien, Afrika, Australien, Amerika und Europa, zu den Inhaltsstoffen und zur Wirkung des Opiums, zum Konsum und der Herstellung von rauchbarem Opium sowie zu den Rauchtechniken dieses medizinisch wertvollen Saftes des Mohns. Ein einzigartiges Dokument der Zeitgeschichte psychoaktiver Drogen.

Soma

For A.K. Ramanujan, who infused his diverse knowledge of Indian literatures and traditions into his poetry, the idea of Soma, the mysterious plant used by Vedic priests to extract ambrosia, fed his creativity. Sifting through Ramanujan's archives, the editors discovered a series of unpublished 'Soma poems' whose style and theme set them apart from his earlier work. This volume includes these poems beside essays and an interview that contextualizes them. Krishna Ramanujan's essay 'Hummel's Miracle: The Search for Soma' explores the connections between the poems and the quest for the plant's identity from the 1960s to the present. 'The "Ordinary Mystery" Trip: Soma in A.K. Ramanujan's Poetry' ...
