Abstract

L’Interprétation des songes d’Artémidore de Daldis, composée à la fin du iie siècle de notre ère, est le seul ouvrage antique du genre qui nous soit parvenu dans son intégralité. C’est une source d’information irremplaçable et pourtant encore mal exploitée sur les attentes, les craintes, les représentations des contemporains d’Artémidore et sur le monde dans lequel ils vivaient. C’est aussi un exemple de guide interprétatif comme on en trouve dans de nombreuses civilisations et à maintes époques historiques, mais jamais à un tel degré d’élaboration ni avec une telle complexité d’analyse. Ce recueil rassemble six études portant sur Artémidore et son traité, ainsi que sur sa postérité. Il s’agit de situer l’auteur dans le paysage religieux de son temps et par rapport aux courants philosophiques qui dominent la scène intellectuelle de son époque ; d’explorer les thèmes reflétant les préoccupations et les activités de ses contemporains (le théâtre, l’argent, la mort) ; il s’agit enfin de présenter l’onirocritique byzantine qui se différencie de celle d’Artémidore tout en étant son héritière.

Abstract

Les clefs des songes du xiiie au xve siècles ne sont pas là pour ouvrir la voie à la parole du rêveur. Bien au contraire, des interprétations stéréotypées et orientées l'enferment à double tour dans un discours dûment orchestré. Les songes foisonnants de ciel ou de terre, d'anges, de saints, d'astres, de nuées, de feu, d'eau, de végétaux, d'animaux, de l'une ou l'autre partie du corps, sont pris dans les réseaux d'une idéologie qui commande la représentation de soi et des autres dans l'intérêt de la classe dominante aristocratique.

Abstract

The Edge of Knowing explores the relationship between the rhetoric of dreams and realist literary practice in modern Chinese literature from the May Fourth Era in the early twentieth century through the period just following the end of the Cultural Revolution in 1976. The writers' attention to dreams demonstrates the multiple influences of Western psychology, utopian desire for revolutionary change, and the enduring legacy of traditional Chinese philosophy. At the same time, modern Chinese writers used their work to represent social reality for the purpose of nation-building. Recent political usage of dream rhetoric in the People's Republic of China attests to the continuing influence of dreams on the imagination of Chinese modernity. By employing a number of critical perspectives, The Edge of Knowing will appeal to readers seeking to understand the complicated relationship between literary form and Chinese history and politics.

Abstract

This book - the first collection of studies on Byzantine dreams to be published - aims to demonstrate the importance of closely examining dreams in Byzantium in their wider historical and cultural, as well as narrative, context. The remarkable number of dream narratives in Byzantine hagiography, historiography, rhetoric, epistolography, and romance attests to the cardinal function of dreams as vehicles of meaning in politics, religion and literature. The essays provide a broad variety of perspectives, exploring gender, eroticism, Greco-Roman and Islamic influences, psychoanalysis and anthropol

Abstract

A Guide to Imagework is a pioneering guide to a new trend in ethnographic research: the use of imaginative, experiential methods such as dreamwork, artwork, Gestalt theory and psychodrama. Originating in group counselling and psychiatric therapy, imagework techniques explore subjects' imaginative resources to reveal unconscious knowledge about identity, belief and society. They are ideal for accessing rich qualitative data about how individuals and cultures function. Iain Edgar, a leading specialist on ethnographic method, has condensed top-level research theory on imagework into this

Abstract

"A World of Relationships is an ethnographical account of the cultural use and social potential of dreams among Aboriginal groups of the Australian Western Desert. The outcome of fieldwork conducted in the area in the 1980s and 1990s, it was originally published in French as Les jardins du nomade: Cosmologie, territoire et personne dans le desert occidental australien." "In her study, Sylvie Poirier explores the contemporary Aboriginal system of knowledge and law through an analysis of the relationships between the ancestral order, the 'sentient' land, and human agencies. At the ethnographical and analytical levels, particular attention is given to a range of local narratives and stories, and to the cultural construction of individual experiences."--Jacket
