GLYPHARMACOLOGY Ritual Technology of Ancient Plants What if the forgotten potions of the temple were never mere medicines but mnemonic keys to a symbolic system lost in time? This ground breaking volume uncovers the ritual pharmacology of the ancient world, where psychoactive plants, sacred elixirs, and alchemical brews formed the backbone of descent-and-return ceremonies. From the temple distilleries of Dendera to the sealed chambers of the Duat, this book reveals how entheogenic substances were not taken to escape realitybut to realign it. Blending archaeological insight, symbolic recursion, and clinical foresight, Glypharmacology is both a field guide and a memory architecture. It traces the layers of the Seal, the role of distillation, the encoded recipes of the Ebers Papyrus, and the eerie resonance between ancient rites and modern psychedelics. Along the way, youll meet gods who brewed, spirits who fermented, and initiates who rememberedthrough ritual, not belief. For seekers, scholars, clinicians, and psycho-nauts alikethis is not a history of drugs. It is the return of a forgotten ritual technology.

Cornwalls storytelling tradition stretches back a thousand years. Before TV and radio, stories were told among the flickering shadows at the fireside. They whiled away the travellers miles, long hours in the fields, and days at sea. They gladdened brief moments of relaxation for miners and bal-maidens. Travelling storytellers wandered from village to village swapping words for supper, and a rich local dialect brought the tales to life. Classic Cornish tales such as the Mermaid of Zennor and Jan Tregeagle are wonderfully entertaining, and collectively tell us much about Cornwall, its people, and its history.Join accomplished storyteller, scholar and writer Mike OConnor as he explores the when, where, and why of Cornish folk tales and celebrates the rich traditions and cultural legacy of hwedhlow.

Thick with owls and badgers, oak trees and wood piles, scarecrows and ghosts, and Tom Coxs loud and excitable dad, this book is full of the folklore of several counties the ancient kind and the everyday variety as well as wild places, mystical spots and curious objects. Emerging from this focus on the detail are themes that are broader and bigger and more important than ever.Toms writing treads a new path, one that has a lot in common with a rambling country walk; its bewitched by fresh air and big skies, intrepid in minor ways, haunted by weather and old stories and the spooky edges of the outdoors, restless and prone to a few detours, but it always reaches its destination in the end.

An exceptionally thoughtful and beautifully written. Maxine PeakeErudite, questing and endlessly fascinating . . . the book that British folk has long needed.Katherine MayA splendid museum full of strange and wonderful things. Peter Ross A fresh and engaging celebration of the customs, places, objects and peoples that make up what we know as folk in Britain.By its nature, folk is ephemeral: tricky to define, hard to preserve and even more difficult to resurrect. But folk culture is all around us; sitting in our churches, swinging from our pubs and dancing through our streets, patiently waiting to be discovered, appreciated, saved and cherished.In The Lost Folk, Lally MacBeth is on a mission to breathe new life into these rapidly disappearing customs. She reminds us that folk is for everyone, and does not belong to an imagined, halcyon past, but is constantly being drawn from everyday lives and communities. As well as looking at what folk customs have meant in Britains past, she shines a light on what they can and should mean as we move into the future - encouraging us to use the book as an inspiration, and become collectors and creators of our very own folk traditions.
