Description



About the Book



Of the many psychoactive plants used by indigenous peoples around the world, none has been the subject of such exhaustive botanical, chemical, and ethnographic study as the vine and drink known as ayahuasca or yagé. Ayahuasca--a Quechua word meaning "vine of the spirits"--is a psychotropic infusion with a millennia-old tradition considered sacred by millions of indigenous people throughout the Amazon rainforest basin. The magical-religious and biomedical interest in the properties and powers of ayahuasca led to the emergence of new cultural traditions related to the use of this drink in the 20th century. The book takes a multidisciplinary approach to analyzing traditional and modern uses of ayahuasca: indigenous, mestizo, religious and medical-therapeutic. The book touches on topics in the social and natural sciences, law, and the history of religions, providing a highly symbolic example of the processes of sociocultural encounter and synthesis that are taking place in this historical period, with repercussions that involve both scientific knowledge and legal-institutional reflection.



About the Author



Walter Menozzi es licenciado en Ciencias Económicas y Financieras por la Universidad Bocconi de Milán. En 1998, durante un intercambio universitario en Brasil, entró en contacto con la ayahuasca a través de la religión ayahuasquera del Santo Daime. A partir de entonces, inició un estudio en profundidad del tema que le llevó a pasar regularmente varios meses en la selva amazónica. Consultor de empresas, sigue complementando su profesión en el área económica con sus estudios personales de antropología, etnobotánica e historia de las religiones. Desde 2008, dirige un centro de investigación espiritual llamado Stella Azzurra (con sede en la provincia de Reggio Emilia), que promueve el estudio, la práctica y la integración de técnicas espirituales de las tradiciones nativas de los cinco continentes, con especial referencia a las tradiciones de la selva amazónica.
