This conference brings together
scholars from the United States,
Switzerland, Italy, and Israel who
approach the study of dreams in
Greco-Roman antiquity from a variety
of perspectives (literary, art historical,
religious, epigraphic, and historical).
While the focus of the papers will be
on dreams, the conference seeks to
extend the study of nighttime phenomena beyond dream
interpretation to include other aspects
of the night, such as insomnia,
nightmares, and the representation of
sleeping figures.
The papers presented
at the Swiss Institute and the American
Academy over the course of this three day
conference will provide wideranging
evidence for the importance of
dreams and sleep in many aspects of
Greek and Roman thought. The
conference will feature two keynote
lectures, one by Sarah Iles Johnston
(Ohio State University) on
Wednesday the 13th (AAR) at 6:30pm
and one by Fritz Graf (Ohio State
University) on Thursday the 14th (ISR)
at 6:30pm.
Co-organizers Christine Walde, University of Basel and Emma Scioli, UCLA
and American Academy in Rome.
