| Summary | "Haschisch: Erzählungen" by Oscar A. H. Schmitz is a collection of stories written during the late 19th century. The narratives explore themes related to hashish and its effects on consciousness, set against the backdrop of bohemian Parisian life, where eccentrics and artists dwell. The opening introduces characters engaged in conversations about ideals and experiences intertwined with the influence of drugs, hinting at deeper philosophical inquiries. At the start of the collection, the narrator recounts an evening spent in a quiet restaurant where he unexpectedly encounters Count Vittorio Alta-Carrara, discussing the artistic potential of hashish. The two men reminisce about their past meetings in various cultural settings and explore the theme of artistic aspiration coupled with the allure of narcotics. As they converse, Alta-Carrara invites the narrator to join him for an evening with like-minded individuals, suggesting an exploration into the heightened states of perception that hashish can facilitate. The narrative sets the stage for a series of experiences that will intertwine fantasy, reality, and the transformative power of drugs. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
