This work is designed to make Aristotle's three essays on sleep and dreams (De Somno et Vigilia, De Insomniis and De Divinatione per Somnum) accessible in translation to modern readers, and to provide a commentary with a contemporary perspective. It considers Aristotles theory of dreams in historical context, especially in relation to Plato. It also discusses neo-Freudian interpretations of Aristotle and contemporary experimental psychology of dreaming. Aristotles account of dreaming as a function of the imagination is examined from a philosophical perspective. Greek text, with facing-page English translation, introduction, notes and commentary.

A beautiful edition... a model for this kind of translation and textual study... Desmond Fitzgerald, UCSF ... combining a sureness of classical learning with a sympathetic understanding of the relevant areas of the modern literature. A book that will be of interest and profit to classicist and modern alike. Dialogue
