The form of the elements that populate the dreams (animals, characters…) seem to reflect a vision that is governed by one’s mind-set at that time and the oneiric elaboration presents itself as the fruit of a very precise process of creation that exploits a linguistic-like competence. The oneiric expression is better described as symbolic and regulated than metaphoric and fantastical.}, number={1}, journal={International Journal of Dream Research}, author={Ruyneau de Saint George, Pierre}, year={2017}, month={May}, pages={83–87} }
