"Charles Corliss presents, for the first time, the complete English translation of Herbert Silberer's work on dreams, Der Traum: Einführung in die Traumpsychologie. Based on lectures delivered at the majestic Urania Star Observatory in Vienna in 1918, Der Traum was a wide-ranging, accessible introduction to the meaning of dreams, with examples from Silberer's practice providing a rich source of illustration. One hundred years after the work was first published in Silberer's native German, Corliss rescues his voice from obscurity and adds key supplementary information to place the work in context"-- Provided by publisher.
