4°. 36(1) S., 1 Bl. mit 16 ganzseitigen, farbigen Illustrationen und einem Holzschnitt (Frontispiz). Farbig illustrierter Opbd. Sehr gutes Exemplar. Erste Ausgabe. "Die erste Begegnung mit der indianischen Legende 'Im Reich des Mescal' ruft bei Menschen unterschiedlichen Temperaments, unterschiedlicher Bildung und Weltanschauung bemerkenswert einhellige Reaktionen hervor: die Bilder, unwahrscheinlich schön in in den Farben - eindrucksvoll in den einfachen Formen - unverwechselbare Elemente indianischer Formensprache, mit spontaner Naivität behandelt - der Text ein rundum menschliches Dokument. In der Tat fällt das Märchen für Erwachsene 'Im Reich des Mescal' von Georg Schäfer mit Farbbildern von seiner Frau Nan Cuz, einer Indianerin, aus dem Rahmen gewohnter Vorstellungen heraus" (Nachwort). Schäfer (1926-1990) war ein deutsch-amerikanischer Journalist, Schriftsteller und Maler, der während des Zweiten Weltkrieges im dänischen Untergrund aktiv war und deshalb ins KZ kam. Nach dem Krieg arbeitete er als Journalist für den "Spiegel" und "Die Welt" und lernte bei dieser Tätigkeit seine erste Frau, die guatamaltekisch-deutsche Malerin Nan Cuz (*1927) kennen. Deren Vater war ein deutscher Kaffeeplantagenbetreiber in Guatemala, ihre Mutter eine Maya. Seit den 1930er-Jahren wuchs sie in Berlin auf, wo ihr Vater für Goebbels Reichspropagandaministerium arbeitete. Selbst Teil der frühen Hippiebewegung stand sie im Gedankenaustausch mit Albert Hofmann, Hubert Fichte, Aldous Huxley and Albert Einstein. Sie und ihr Mann gehörten 1953 zu den Mitbegründern des Deutschen Kinderschutzbunds. 1973 zogen sie nach Guatemala, wo sie ein Kunstzentrum gründeten. 1978 trennte sich Schäfer von seiner Frau und ging in die USA. Dort heiratete er die Galeristin Sherry Munson, mit der er später in Sri Lanka Malereien mit der Lebensgeschichte Buddhas im Tempel von Nyaniponika Mahathera restaurierte. Das vorliegende Buch ist ein illustriertes Märchen für Erwachsene, dessen Vorlagen indianische Folklore und das Tibetanische Totenbuch waren. Es wurde kurz nach Erscheinen zu einem Kultbuch der deutschen Hippiebewegung und auch in mehrere andere Sprachen übertragen. Sprache: de.

First edition in English, signed by the author and by the illustrator on the title page. The work, first published in German the previous year, explores the use of mescaline by Native Americans "to extend the consciousness, open the closed doors of the self and increase the richness of the soul" (p. 39). Schäfer and Cuz experimented with synthetic mescaline shortly after the war. They published their findings in a scientific paper entitled "Experimental Research on the time-space problem", which led to correspondence with Carl Jung and Albert Einstein. The artistic interpretation of their research is introduced by the Guatemalan writer and diplomat Miguel Ángel Asturias, who states that Schäfer and Cruz have "succeeded in creating a new dimension, that which is sought by art but not always found" (p. 5). Folio. Original illustrated boards. Short split to head of front joint, holding fast, nick at foot of rear board joint, spots of wear to extremities, boards a little rubbed with faint scratches to front: a very good copy.
