Representations of dreams – no matter if factual or fictional – are influenced
not only by cultural patterns but also by the specific opportunities
offered and the specific challenges posed by the genre or medium

reports and fictional dreams in epic poems, dream visions, satires, the
Chinese genre zhiguai, novels, lyrical poems, prose poems, dramas,

films, video games, operas, and instrumental music. The authors and
artists discussed include Artemidorus, Bachmann, Baudelaire, Bergman,
