Reviews

Patricia Cox Miller should be commended for having cast her net wide. Her book, indeed, represents the first sustained effort to present and analyze the place of dreams in the culture of the Roman Empire, from the second to the fifth centuries... By studying together pagan and Christian dreams, Cox Miller hopes to reach a better understanding of some fundamental patterns of late antique culture. --Guy G. Stroumsa, The Journal of Religion A fluent and discursive text... This is an adventurous exploration of a range of material which deserves to be more widely known. --Gillian Clark, The Classical Review
