Dream And Myth Interpretation

Dream and Myth Interpretation is a book written by Herbert Silberer that explores the relationship between dreams and myths. Silberer was a psychoanalyst who believed that the symbols and images in dreams were similar to those found in myths and legends. He argued that both dreams and myths were expressions of the collective unconscious, and that by understanding the meaning behind these symbols, one could gain insight into their own psyche. The book is divided into two parts. The first part focuses on dream interpretation and provides a comprehensive overview of the various theories and techniques used in the field of psychoanalysis. Silberer explores the role of the unconscious mind in shaping dreams, and provides examples of how dreams can be analyzed and interpreted in order to gain a deeper understanding of one's own psyche. The second part of the book focuses on myth interpretation, and explores the similarities between myths and dreams. Silberer argues that myths are collective expressions of the unconscious, and that by studying them, one can gain insight into the collective psyche of a culture or society. He provides numerous examples of myths from various cultures and shows how they can be interpreted in order to reveal deeper truths about human nature. Overall, Dream and Myth Interpretation is a fascinating exploration of the relationship between dreams and myths, and provides valuable insights into the workings of the human psyche. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the field of psychoanalysis or mythology.THIS 26 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Problems of Mysticism and Its Symbolism, by Herbert Silberer.
