Paperback. Condizione: New. Herbal and Magical Medicine draws on perspectives from folklore, anthropology, psychology, medicine, and botany to describe the traditional medical beliefs and practices among Native, Anglo- and African Americans in eastern North Carolina and Virginia. In documenting the vitality of such seemingly unusual healing traditions as talking the fire out of burns, wart-curing, blood-stopping, herbal healing, and rootwork, the contributors to this volume demonstrate how the region's folk medical systems operate in tandem with scientific biomedicine.The authors provide illuminating commentary on the major forms of naturopathic and magico-religious medicine practiced in the United States. Other essays explain the persistence of these traditions in our modern technological society and address the bases of folk medical concepts of illness and treatment and the efficacy of particular pratices. The collection suggests a model for collaborative research on traditional medicine that can be replicated in other parts of the country. An extensive bibliography reveals the scope and variety of research in the field.Contributors. Karen Baldwin, Richard Blaustein, Linda Camino, Edward M. Croom Jr., David Hufford, James W. Kirland, Peter Lichstein, Holly F. Mathews, Robert Sammons, C. W. Sullivan III.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Could there be an unconscious awareness of the primitive self Is there an unknown dark side of a personality, perhaps incubated within a shadow of a dormant lair in the mind Is it hidden, or buried, beneath every diverse fear and insecurity waiting to be found Drop explores the unchartered abyss within the subconscious. While being a dark journey into the heart of madness and evil, it also merges the frantic ramblings of a confused narrator who questions his every conscious projection as either paranoia, or even worse, reality. Drop is a dark fiction, rooted in elements of horror, but it also imbibes a comical madness as well. Drop is the story of a group of friends who find themselves spiraling out of control on a jolting and terrible acid trip. It weaves the possibility of a supernatural interference dooming the group into peril while simultaneously, through psychological and philosophical musings, explores good and evil. The narrator is wasted and fumbling through his thoughts, fearing some dark force is tearing its way through each of their minds because of a previous trip he had months earlier he believes to have been prophetic. He is confused and this spills into the storytelling as he rambles of this 'demon' breaking through his 'shadow' in his subconscious. His paranoia persists and he soon recognizes the 'demon' in his friends. His derangement is the basis of the narration, so at times the reader may seem confused as well - but the ending ties everything together nicely so that you can take a breath afterwards.…
