Dreams and visions have played an essential role in human history, literature, and culture, shaping both individual lives and collective societies. From the earliest civilizations to the medieval period, these phenomena were not merely considered random occurrences during sleep but rather divine messages, omens, reflections of the soul, or glimpses into the future. Ancient and medieval literature is rich with accounts of dreams and visions that influenced rulers, guided prophets, and inspired poets. The complex interplay between the supernatural and human experience in these narratives reveals profound insights into how different cultures conceptualized the world and their place within it.
