Dream Cultures : Explorations in the Comparative History of Dreaming PDF
Edited by David Shulman, Guy G. Stroumsa

Description
This volume offers a comparative, cross-cultural history of dreams.
The essays examine a wide range of texts concerning dreams, as culled from a rich variety of religious contexts: China, India, the Americas, classical Greek and Roman antiquity, early Christianity, and medieval Judaism and Islam.
Taken together, these pieces constitute an important first step toward a new understanding of the differences and similarities between the ways in which different cultures experience the universal yet utterly unique world of dreams.
