Dream space and masculinity

Abstract

In previous work on the implications of medieval dream theory for reading dream narrative, I have proposed that ideas of the dream's ‘doubleness’ and ‘middleness’ — its consistent connection to and navigation between a transcendent and an earthly realm — enabled the development of the ‘middle vision,’ a literary genre particularly suited ‘to explore areas of betweenness’. Here, I wish in part to rethink this earlier formulation in light of a certain ‘somatizing’ shift in later medieval dream theory.
