"Μικρά Φυσικά, Τόμος Δεύτερος" by Aristotle is a scientific publication likely written in the early centuries of the Common Era. This work focuses on various natural phenomena and human experiences, including the nature of dreams, their causes, and effects on perception, blending philosophy with empirical observation to understand sensory phenomena. The beginning of this volume explores the concept of dreams, asserting that they occur in the realm of the sensory rather than
the rational part of the psyche. Aristotle begins by discussing how dreaming differs from sensory perception during wakefulness, emphasizing that while one may experience vivid imagery in dreams, they are not controlled by external stimuli in the same way as when awake. He proposes that dreams are residual impressions of prior sensory experiences, offering insights into the workings of perception and imagination during sleep. Additionally, Aristotle examines how emotional and physical states can influence dreaming, hinting at a complex interplay between the mind and body in these nocturnal narratives.
