Contrasts Freud's and Kraepelin's interpretation of dream speech, analyzing it from both perspectives. Features a premier, complete English translation of Kraepelin's ``On Speech Disorders in Dreams'' along with short documents of the period and a previously unpublished corpus of Kraepelin's own dream speech. Includes the results of systematic research which implies that dream speech is less deficient than generally supposed. Implications are drawn for the dreaming brain as well as cognitive capacities.
