Western representations of shamans and shamanic experience have changed radically over the last century, moving toward an ethnopoetics of shamanism. These representations have shifted from the sphere of the diabolic, to the exotic, and finally to the spiritual and aesthetic in the Americas in various ethnographical, historical, autobiographical, and literary works. Using studies of Nicholas Black Elk, a Lakota shaman, and his relationship with the poet John G. Neihardt; the Mazatec healer Maria Sabina and her treatment by R. Gordon Wasson and subsequent commentators; and the American writer and anthropologist Carlos Castaneda and the problematic status of his Yaqui native informant Don Juan, de Lima shows that while shamanic practices had long been indirectly registered (and often misrecognized) by Western observers and writers, it is since the late nineteenth century that they take on a particular status within Western discourses of primitivism and the debates over magic and rationality.
