This book explores images in dream and vision reports in biblical and related literature through a variety of methodologies informed by rhetoric, critical theory, trauma studies, the analysis of space and society, and the history of emotions. Contributors explore the hermeneutics of readership, the relationship between reading and intertextuality, and the interplay of affect and emotion within dreams and visions in religious texts.
