In the late nineteenth century, dreams became the subject of
scientific study for the first time, after thousands of years of
being considered a primarily spiritual phenomenon. Before Freud and
the rise of psychoanalytic interpretation as the dominant mode of
studying dreams, an international group of physicians,
physiologists, and psychiatrists pioneered scientific models of
dreaming. Collecting data from interviews, structured observation,
surveys, and their own dream diaries, these scholars produced a
large body of early research on the sleeping brain in the late
nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. This book uncovers an
array of case studies from this overlooked period of dream
scholarship. With contributors working across the disciplines of
psychology, history, literature, and cultural studies, it
highlights continuities and ruptures in the history of scientific
inquiry into dreams.
