      Als Sigmund Freud 1900 Die Traumdeutung veröffentlichte, begann er das moderne Studium eines Phänomens, das die Menschheit seit Tausenden von Jahren fasziniert. Er erklärte, dass Träume Türen zum Unbewussten sind, und eröffnete damit einen neuen Bereich für Künstler und Filmemacher, die begannen, nach innen zu schauen, um eine neue Muse zu finden. Dieses Buch untersucht die sich wandelnden Rollen, die Träume in der Kunst und Wissenschaft des zwanzigsten Jahrhunderts gespielt haben.
