There is another realm of the 'Metamorphoses' which has, until now, received relatively little attention namely, the many dreams found within it. 'The Religious Dreamworld of Apuleius' Metamorphoses' offers an engaging portrait of the second-century dreamworld. Recognizing the centrality of the religious function and spiritual interpretation of dreams, this book illustrates their vital importance in the ancient world and the wide variety of meanings attributed to them. James Gollnick draws deeply from historical and psychological studies and provides a historical background on the current interest in the role of dreams in psychological and spiritual transformation. This study of Apuleius's 'Metamorphoses' adds to an appreciation of Apuleius the dreamer and the second-century dreamworld in which he lived and wrote. 410 0$aEditions SR ;$vv. 25. 606 $aDreams in literature 615 0$aDreams in literature. 676 $a873 676 $a873.01 676 $a873/.01 700 $aGollnick$b James$0442333 712 02$aCanadian Corporation for Studies in Religion. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910821396503321 996 $aThe religious dreamworld of Apuleius' Metamorphoses$93914524 997 $aUNINA
