Dreaming and Historical Consciousness in Island Greece

Charles Stewart

Dreaming and Historical Consciousness in Island Greece

Directed by their dreams to dig up buried objects, villagers on the Greek island of Naxos have long acted as archaeologists and historians and striven to uncover a past that would alter their future. This ethnography of historical consciousness widens our definition of history and offers new insight into how people imagine the past in daily life.
