Dreams and Experience in Classical Antiquity

Abstract

From the Iliad to Aristophanes, from the gospel of Matthew to Augustine, Greek and Latin texts are constellated with images of dreams. This cultural history draws on contemporary post-Freudian science and careful critiques of the ancient texts. Harris reminds us of specificities, contexts, and changing attitudes through history.
