University of Helsinki: Dream Cultures;
In this conference, we want to focus instead on the culture of dreams and dreaming in any geographical location or historical period.  Dreaming has often been seen as a universal phenomenon, but dream narratives, meanings given to dreams and even the content of dreams are culturally and historically contingent. The conference will offer a multidisciplinary arena for discussing how dreams and nightmares have been understood and conceptualized in various historical and cultural contexts.
