High Culture: Drugs, Mysticism, and the Pursuit of Transcendence in the Modern World
Partridge, Christopher (Professor of Religious Studies, Professor of Religious Studies, Lancaster University)
Humans have always been fascinated by drugs and altered states. Despite the risk of addiction, many have used drugs as technologies to induce moments of meaning-making transcendence. Beginning at the close of the eighteenth century, this book traces the quest for transcendence and meaning through drugs in the West through the modern period.
