For the past four or five years much of my thinking has centered up on the relationship of symbolic forms to philosophic imagination and interpretation. As one whose own philosophic speculations began at. the end of a cultural epoch under methodologies dominated either by neo-Kantianism or schools of logical empiricism the symbol as a prod uct of a cultural imagination has been diminished; it has been neces sary for those who wanted to preserve the symbol to find appropriate philosophical methodologies to do so. In the following chapters we shall attempt to show, through a consideration of a series of recent interpretations of the symbol, as well as through constructive argu ment, that the symbol ought to be considered as a linguistic form in the sense that it constitutes a special language with its own rubrics and properties. There are two special considerations to be taken ac count of in this argument; first, the definition of the symbol, and sec ond, the interpretation of the symbol. Although we shall refrain from defining the symbol explicitly at this point let it suffice to state that our definition of the symbol is more aesthetic than logical (in the technical sense of formal logic ), more cultural than individual, more imaginative than scientific. The symbol in our view is somewhere at the center of culture, the well-spring which testifies to the human imagination in its poetic, psychic, religious, social and political forms.

In Symbolism and Interpretation, Tzvetan Todorov examines two aspects of discourse: its production, which has traditionally been the domain of rhetoric, and its reception, which has always been the object of hermeneutics. He analyzes the diverse theories of symbolism and interpretation that have been elaborated over the centuries and considers their contribution to a general theory of verbal symbolism, discussing a wide range of thinkers, from the Sanskrit philosophers and Aristotle to the German Romantics and contemporary semioticians. Todorov begins by examining general ideas of linguistic symbolism and the interpretive process. He then turns to a detailed consideration of two of the most influential and pervasive interpretative strategies in Western thought: the patristic exegesis of Augustine and Aquinas, and the philological exegesis foreshadowed in the work of Spinoza, developed by Wolf, Ast, Boeckh, and Lanson, and criticized by Schleiermacher. Todorov clarifies in masterly fashion the intricacies of the many schools of thought and refines the concepts crucial to critical theory today, including the distinctions between language and discourse, direct and indirect meaning, sign and symbol. Ably translated by Catherine Porter, Symbolism and Interpretation provides a coherent and innovative framework that is indispensable to the study of semiotics, its history, and its future.

Every symbol carries an elemental power that transcends boundaries and holds significance for many cultures. This beautiful, comprehensive book describes, discusses and illustrates thousands of these fascinating visual elements and assesses their relevance in language, art, literature, mythology, magic, religion and psychology. It also makes us more aware of the way signs and symbols are a subconscious language that we are at times unaware of when used by advertising and art, or even in our own doodlings or body language. The same fluidity that can be found I n the interpretation of signs and symbols can also be seen in the interpretation of dreams. Each dream has a particular significance for the dreamer, and similar content will have a totally different meaning depending on who is dreaming the dream. In the second part of this book, how we dream and show we interpret dreams is analyzed as a way of accessing our subconscious fears, desires and preoccupations. This unparalleled volume gives a wealth of information and cultural background to the primal metaphors that are part of humanitys universal, but ultimately personal, language, and begins a voyage of discovery into the importance of symbolism and dreams. Lavishly illustrated with over 2000 specially commissioned illustrations, fine art paintings and evocative photography, this book contains a vast visual resource of inspirational imagery as well as erudite and informative text. Book jacket.

Many Christians believe we are living in both the most exciting and also the most precarious worldwide state of affairs in all of history as God is moving to bring the ages to a close. Therefore it is imperative and even critical for God's people to place themselves in a position to hear what He is speaking and directing us to do in these times. From the beginning of time, dreams have been a major way that God speaks to His people, therefore it is important for us to understand the messages in the dreams that He gives us. Because dreams and visions are filled with symbolic language it is essential to properly interpret what the symbols mean, if we are to understand the message God is communicating to us through our dreams. There are many excellent Christian teachings on dream interpretation, and rather than bring forth material that is already available, my desire instead is to place in your hands over 2400 symbols, with most of them having a multitude of meanings; to assist and train you in unlocking the mysteries of not only your dreams, but also the dreams of others. Since it is God's voice alone we want to hear and understand, we have no interest in knowing how the world that is out of touch with God interprets dream symbols. Every interpretation must be God derived; otherwise we will not be receiving the truth of what He desires us to know. For that reason, the overwhelming majority of the symbol meanings found in this book are derived from the Bible; with the remainder sourced from tested Christian dream courses, teachers, and from interpreting the dreams of Christians. God desires you to know what He is speaking to you, so be encouraged that with the help of this book, you will be able to unlock the meanings and messages of your dreams.
