  • Psychedelics and Entheogens: Implications of Administration in Medical and Non- Medical Contexts
    Psychedelics and Entheogens: Implications of Administration in Medical and Non- Medical Contexts by Hannah Rae Kirk A THESIS submitted to Oregon State University Honors College in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Biology (Honors Scholar) Presented May 23, 2018 Commencement June 2018 AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Hannah Rae Kirk for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Biology presented on May 23, 2018. Title: Psychedelics and Entheogens: Implications of Administration in Medical and Non-Medical Contexts. Abstract approved:_____________________________________________________ Robin Pappas Psychedelics and entheogens began as religious sacraments. They were apotheosized for their mind-expanding powers and were thought to open realms to the world of the Gods. It was not until the first psychedelic compound was discovered in a laboratory setting a mere hundred years ago that they entered into formal scientific study. Although they were initially well-received in academic and professional circles, research into their potential was interrupted when they were made illegal. Only recently have scientists renewed the investigation of psychedelic substances, in the hope of demonstrating their potential in understanding and healing the human mind. This thesis will explore the history of psychedelics and entheogens, consider the causes behind the prohibition of their research, and outline their reintroduction into current scientific research. Psychedelic compounds have proven to be magnifiers of the mind and, under appropriate circumstances, can act as medicaments in both therapeutic and non-medical contexts. By exploring the journey of psychedelic substances from sacraments, to therapeutic aids, to dangerous drugs, and back again, this thesis will highlight what is at stake when politics and misinformation suppresses scientific research.

  • Competing Philosophies in Calderon's El Mayor Encanto, Amor
    Bulletin of Spanish Studies, Volume LXXXVII, Number 2, 2010 The Figure of Circe and the Power of Knowledge: Competing Philosophies in Caldero´n’s El mayor encanto, amor JONATHAN ELLIS Oklahoma State University At first, Caldero´n’s mythological play follows the well-known story of Homer’s Odyssey. On their way home from the Trojan War, Ulises1 and his crew stop at the island of the witch Circe. Most of the Greeks search the island and arrive at the palace of Circe as their leader waits at the beach. Rather than be wary, they choose to indulge their desires and baser natures. As we know, Circe transforms all but one of them into beasts with a potion. However, from this point on Caldero´n begins to introduce significant changes into the story known from both Homer and Ovid. When Ulises confronts Circe, she gives him also a potion, but he does not drink, having learned of its danger and having learned how to render it useless.2 Defeated, Circe cries out, ‘¿Quie´n cielos airados, / quie´nma´s ha sabido que yo?’ (1515a).3 This early passage is key, indicating that she recognizes knowledge to be the basis of her power with which she attempts to control all of nature, the elements and men. However, 1 I have retained the Spanish spelling of the names throughout, in order to clearly distinguish between Caldero´n’s characters and those of Classical literature. 2 In Homer, Odysseus is aided by Hermes who provides the moly root as protection against the effects of Circe’s potion.

  • Women and Magic in Medieval Literature
    Women and Magic in Medieval Literature by Jessica Leigh In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS in The Department of English State University of New York New Paltz, New York 12561 November 2019 WOMEN AND MAGIC IN MEDIEVAL LITERATURE Jessica Leigh State University of New York at New Paltz _______________________________________ We, the thesis committee for the above candidate for the Master of Arts degree, hereby recommend Acceptance of this thesis. _______________________________________ Daniel Kempton, Thesis Advisor Department of English, SUNY New Paltz _______________________________________ Cyrus Mulready, Thesis Committee Member Department of English, SUNY New Paltz Approved on 12/06/2019 Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements For the Master of Arts degree in English at the State University of New York at New Paltz Leigh 1 One of the defining features of medieval literature is its relationship with a particular tradition of magic. Arthurian chivalric romance stands among some of the most well-known and enduring medieval literary pieces, appearing as a staple of Renaissance medievalism, Victorian medievalism, the work of pre-Raphaelites, and in modern pop culture, as in programs like Merlin. The tropes of Arthurian chivalric romance remain major identifiers of the Middle Ages. Even other major medieval texts still largely known and commonly studied in schools and universities today incorporate elements of the Arthurian tradition, as in The Canterbury Tales by Geoffrey Chaucer, or the wider chivalric tradition, as in the lais of Marie de France. The fictional worlds encompassed by medieval literature contain many legendary creatures, prophesied events, and magical items which give color and memorable character to these many tales.

  • Witchcraft with Toads
    Toads & Witchcraft Jon Kaneko-James MAY 8, 2015 · 9:34 PM The Shepherd Witches of Normandy In his book Grimoires, A History of Magical Books, Owen Davies writes of how Thomas Tryon, the English mystic, learned to read while working as a Shepherd. In Tryon’s writings, he leaves the passage, ‘[The] Sherpherd and Husbandman understand something of Nature, putting out their own Eyes, and boasting what Wonders they can see with other Mens.’ Likewise, Davies records that John Cannon, while a child, met a shepherd who introduced him to the magical arts contained in a copy of Agrippa’s Fourth Book of Occult Philosophy. A Brief Note I must admit, I’ve partially only included an introductory paragraph from Davies’ superb work to show that I made every attempt to write from as many sources as possible. I usually try to use four or more sources for these blog posts, but as I researched for this particular entry, I found that every source tracks back to William Monter’s Toads and Eucharists: The Male Witches of Normandy, 1564-1660. If there is another work that has eluded me, I apologise, and I do hope that someone makes me aware of it. Cor Hendriks, Toads & Witchcraft Information File (PDF Aug. ’16) 1 Since I really want to write about the shepherd witches of Normandy, I’ve followed suit with Robin Briggs, Owen Davies and Brian Levack in publishing a précis of Monter’s original work. Male Witches in Normandy While the evidence does hold out that in general (with the exception of Iceland and certain Scandinavian and Eastern European countries), in 1565 over half of the defendants tried at the Parliament of Paris, and three quarters of those tried at the Parliament of Rouen, were men.

  • The Role of Hallucinogenic Plants in European `Wi±Chcraft Michael I
    The Role of Hallucinogenic Plants in European `Wi±chcraft Michael I. Halnel A prevalent attitude among present-day historians and scholars of religion (e.g., Henningsen, ig69: lo5-6; Trevor-Roper, 1969: 9o, 192) is that late medieval and Renaissance witchcraft was essentially a fiction created by the Church. Those taking this posi- tion often argue that the Inquisition had an a Prjorf conception of witchcraft and simply tortured accused persons until they gave the "right" answers in terms of Church dogma. To support their position, they point out that many of the things witches confessed to doing, such as flying through the air and engaging in orgies with demons at Sabbats, were patently impossible. The position of such scholars is not contravened by accounts of the rituals practiced by persons organized into formal witchcraft covens in Europe and the United States today. Such "witches" engage in what they think are the traditional practices, but insofar as I have been able to discover through interviews, do not believe that they fly through the air nor frolic with supernatural creatures at Sabbats. Instead, their activities tend to be sober and highly ritualistic. Academicians as well as present-day coven participants A preliminary version of this paper was read at the Hallucinogens and Shamanism symposium at the annual meeting of the American Anthropological Association in Seattle in ig68. I am indebted to Lawrence Rosenwald and Philip Winter for assist- ance in making translations for this paper. Deadly nightshade (Afropa bezzadon7ia ) Henbane (Hyoscyamus) Mandrake (Mczridragora ) Thorn apple (Dafura) 128] IN THE TRADITIONAL WESTERN WORLD have generally failed to comprehend the great importance of hal- lucinogenic plants in the European witchcraft of former times.1 Yet once the use and the effects of these natural hallucinogens are understood, the major features of past beliefs and practices sud- denly seem quite logical and consistent.

  • Atropa Belladonna, Deadly Nightshade
    J R Coll Physicians Edinb 2007; 37:77–84 PAPER © 2007 Royal College of Physicians of Edinburgh Solanaceae IV: Atropa belladonna, Deadly Nightshade MR Lee Emeritus Professor of Clinical Pharmacology and Therapeutics, University of Edinburgh, Edinburgh, Scotland ABSTRACT The Deadly Nightshade, Atropa belladonna, is a plant surrounded by Published online March 2007 myth, fear and awe. In antiquity, the Greeks and the Romans knew that it contained a deadly poison. In medieval times, it was widely used by witches, Correspondence to MR Lee, 112 sorcerors and professional poisoners. Linnaeus later codified its remarkable Polwarth Terrace, Edinburgh, properties as the genus Atropa, the Fate that slits the thin spun life and the species EH11 1NN belladonna because of its power to dilate the pupils. In the 1830s, the pure tel. +44 (0)131 337 7386 alkaloid l-atropine was isolated from the plant. This proved to be a significant tool in the study of the autonomic nervous system leading to the identification of acetylcholine as an important neurotransmitter in mammals. When pure atropine became available, it caused a large number of deaths, whether by accident, suicide or homicide. KEYWORDS Acetylcholine,Atropa, belladonna, murder, poisoning, quinine DECLARATION OF INTERESTS No conflict of interests declared. In this, the final article of a short series on the Solanaceae, I describe the deadly nightshade (Atropa belladonna), a plant hallowed by long tradition as one of the classic poisons of antiquity. Extracted from the plant is the alkaloid atropine (dl-hyoscyamine) which was to prove a cornerstone in the study of autonomic pharmacology. The use of atropine as a homicidal poison seemed to have gradually faded away but then in the 1990s, Dr Agutter in Edinburgh attempted, in a spectacular fashion, to poison his wife with the pure alkaloid.
