Étude sur les fonctions littéraires du rêve en Chine et en occident

TL;DRAbstract

There are differences between the Chinese works and the occidental works on the literary dream. The differences of the two civilizations affect the interpretations of the dream and their literary functions; the common points, especially the divergence taken from their interpretations and their literary functions make part of the two civilizations and display, between other elements, their different characteristics. The literary dream constitutes, therefore, an aspect of one civilization as in the other one. In my study which is essentially thematical, the establishment of a type of the dream in the ten categories allows the construction of the parallelism of the two vertical lines. The analyses have been developed around the subject and been led to this: the Chinese literary dream is philosophical, political, moral, poetical, delivered and pragmatic; however, the occidental literary dream is more spiritual, metaphysical, poetical, evasive and aesthetical.
