Dream and Fiction

Abstract

Dream and fiction are treated through a prism of creativity and creative capacity. The attempt is made to compare Freud’s method of dream’s analysis and different meth-ods of fiction analysis. The following topics are discussed: possible worlds of dreams and of fiction; correlations between literary meaning and depth meaning; between dreamer and teller in fiction; psychic processes in dreams and their correlates in literary fiction; expressive means of dreams and means in fiction; suggestive processes and language creativity.
