About this work

Description

"Artemidorus travelled widely through Greece, Asia, and Italy to collect people's dreams and record their outcomes, in the process casting a vivid light on social mores and religious beliefs in the Severan age. This volume, published as a companion to the new translation of 'The Interpretation of Dreams' by Martin Hammond in the Oxford World’s Classics series, aims to provide the non-specialist reader with a readable and engaging road-map to this vast and complex text."--From publisher.
