Vendeur : Scrinium Classical Antiquity, Aalten, Pays-Bas
Etat : Antiquarian. H&S, Utrecht, 1978. XI,269p. Paperback. Spine discoloured. Edges a bit grimy. 'Studies on the Dream in Greek Literature' is the revised version of a Utrecht doctoral dissertation dating from 1973 which still retains too many signs of its origin. Discussion of other scholar's views is overfull and overlong, and the book lacks a much-needed index of topics treated. But Kessels is a promising scholar, both sensitive and sensible, combining a complete mastery of his material with a healthy scepticism about the relevance of Freudian and other modern dream theories to classical literature. <ost of this study deals with the presentation of the six dreams in Homer, and Kessels akss two main questions: how do early Greek concepts about dreams differ from our own, and how are dreams used as a literary motif? The answers are not startling, but convincing. Homer's dreams have the primary function of advancing the plot by their messages.' (W. GEOFFREY ARNOTT in Greece & Rome, 1980, p.84). From the library of the late Prof. W. Geoffrey Arnott. Antiquarian.
