Description
Summary:Josephus records thirty-two dream reports in his writings. These accounts may be seen as conforming unconsciously to accepted patterns of dream reporting in the ancient world. These dreams fall into the categories of auditory message dreams, visual symbolic dreams, and human dream-images. For Josephus the dream was important since he viewed himself as a dream interpreter. Flavius Josèphe témoigne de trente deux récits de rêves dans ses écrits. Ces récits semblent se conformer inconsciemment aux schémas de rêves de l'antiquité. Ils se classent en : rêves à message auditif, rêves visuels symboliques et images humaines rêvées. Pour Josèphe, les rêves étaient importants en ce qu'il se percevait comme un interprète des rêves.
