Cinema--invented just before psychoanalysis formally
developed--primed the public and scholars to rethink ideas about
dreams. The author describes how surrealist artists purposely
applied Freudian dream theories to their art to make the public
aware of modern ideas about dreams. Most of our current cultural
consciousness about the psychological value of dreams is traced to
classical and contemporary cinema. This work examines how residuals
of past approaches to dreams make conceptions of dreams in
psychoanalysis and science more complex than ever today.
Scholars and students in the fields of psychology, psychiatry,
cinema, medicine, and religion may find this volume useful. The
book also examines academic psychiatry's increased emphasis in
dream study on neuropsychiatry and psychopharmocology, as well as
managed care's decreased compensation for dream therapy.
