Sleep is not only an important biological process, but also a clear channel to the subconscious, a time when our deepest fears and desires rise to the surface in the form of dreams. In this course, students will examine the science behind sleep, how humans have understood or explained this once-perplexing phenomenon historically through the arts and in literature, how dreams have appeared at pivotal moments in religious and cultural movements, and more.
