| dc.description.abstract | I unyoke the issue of real and fake from the artificial, post-Enlightenment European context of ‘art’ to look at the prehistory, which is theological and entheogenic in nature. I first discuss Sylvia Wyner’s notion of auto-institutionality with respect to mind; I then discuss Abrahamic literalism; finally, I situate the ancients’ respect for visionary-driven consciousness within the larger frame of governance of such consciousness. That is, even though the moderns lost knowledge of the mysteries, the ancients aren’t so different from us, different societies simply control access to consciousness altering goods in different ways. Why are these resources so tightly controlled? | en_US |
