<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>These collected essays by the distinguished psychoanalyst Marie-Louise von Franz offer fascinating insights into the study of dreams, not only psychologically, but also from historical, religious, and philosophical points of view. In the first two chapters, the author offers general explanations of the nature of dreams and their use in analysis. She examines how dreams can be used in the development of self-knowledge and describes how C. G. Jung worked with his own dreams, and the fateful ways in which they were entwined with the course of his life. <p/>The rest of the book records and interprets dreams of historical personages: Socrates, Descartes, Themistocles and Hannibal, and the mothers of Saint Augustine, Saint Bernard of Clairvaux, and Saint Dominic. Connections are revealed between the personal and family histories of the dreamers and individual and collective mores of their times. <i>Dreams</i> includes writings long out of print or never before available in English translation.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Von Franz is probably Carl Jung's most important... disciple, and her work fully embodies the essence of his teachings.
