This volume also contains a dream journal section at the end so that readers can record their own dreams in this book. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eDreams are the interior sleeping experiences of individual people, sometimes remembered by a person when he awakens, often not, sometimes narrative, other times disjointed and symbolic in flashes or episodes. Whether stories or scenes, we sometimes want more from our dreams than just entertainment. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBefore Freud, many literate interpreters of dreams assumed that these internal episodes were portents of the future revealed to individuals by some external angel or God. A person's dreams were personal portals through which he or she could glimpse outside and see his fortune-to-come. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThat is how the Bible, the Talmud and later rabbinic texts present the subjects of dreams and the acts of dream interpretation. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAfter Freud's radical paradigm shift, the norm was to see dreams as windows into the personal fears and wishes that stemmed from an individual's life experiences. Freud observably disavowed the notion that an independent ontological realm was sending messages to people via their dreams. He saw them as another means by which to delve into people's inner psyches, as messages from the interior and from the near or distant past.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Eliezer Diamond, Ken Frieden, Joshua Trachtenberg\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 8788462935\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798788462936\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Independently Published\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/21\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 142\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.44lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.30d","brand":"Eliezer Diamond","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44173213106431,"sku":"9798788462936","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_990fe3ce-b46b-4403-8896-025981c0180b.jpg?v=1689791608","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/jewish-dreams-eliezer-diamond-9798788462936","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
