505 0  Continuities in the dream lives of Ming intellectuals -- 
       Sources of special dream salience in late Ming -- Crisis 
       dreaming -- Dream-coping in the aftermath. 
520    From the mid-sixteenth through the end of the seventeenth 
       century, Chinese intellectuals attended more to dreams and
       dreaming--and in a wider array of genres--than in any 
       other period of Chinese history. Taking the approach of 
       cultural history, this ambitious yet accessible work aims 
       both to describe the most salient aspects of this "dream 
       arc" and to explain its trajectory in time through the 
       writings, arts, and practices of well-known thinkers, 
       religionists, litterateurs, memoirists, painters, doctors,
       and political figures of late Ming and early Qing times. 
       The volume's encompassing thesis asserts that certain 
       associations of dreaming, grounded in the neurophysiology 
       of the human brain at sleep--such as subjectivity, 
       irrationality, the unbidden, lack of control, emotionality,
       spontaneity, the imaginal, and memory--when especially 
       heightened by historical and cultural developments, are 
       likely to pique interest in dreaming and generate 
       florescences of dream-expression among intellectuals. The 
       work thus makes a contribution to the history of how 
       people have understood human consciousness in various 
       times and cultures. The Dreaming Mind and the End of the 
       Ming World is the most substantial work in any language on
       the historicity of Chinese dream culture. Within Chinese 
       studies, it will appeal to those with backgrounds in 
       literature, religion, philosophy, political history, and 
       the visual arts. It will also be welcomed by readers 
       interested in comparative dream cultures, the history of 
       consciousness, and neurohistory
