Abstract

The Onirokritikon of Artemidorus Daldianus is the only book of divination through dreams which has been preserved until the second century A. D., although it follows a great tradition. It contains the rules which are to be followed to decode the premonitory sense of dreams, following a method that is fundamentally based on analogy and on an interpretative relativism that lacks scientific rigour.
