The Psychological Effects of Wine (French Edition) by Edmondo De Amicis

The psychological effects of wine, ofEdmondo De Amicis, is a unique work, both literary and philosophical, translated from an oral presentation given in Italy at the end of the 19th century as part of a series of lectures on wine.

This text, rare and little-known, offers a precise and nuanced description of inebriation, as a phenomenon Psychological, , sensory and Emotional. The author details there the succession of states of consciousness that an individual experiences under the progressive influence of wine, from the serenity of the first sips up to the passionate exaltation the last toasts.

As the pages turn, De Amicis dissect this process by highlighting the transformation of ideas, , the alteration of feelings, and the subtle changes in perception. This phenomenon, which he describes as a true "psychological event," is presented as a subject of study worthy of the attention of the philosopher as well as from the artist, as it reveals so much about human nature.

A little gem of psychological observation, at the crossroads of the literature, of the science of the soul and of the wine culture.
