What is the best book (or resource) on learning how to interpret your dreams?

I'm thinking of going full Jungian on this but, if there is an easier way, I'd be happy to know about it.

'Man and His Symbols'
The 'Portable Jung' anthology is pretty good also.

Lmao translation?
If you read translations you might as well just die, or not read at all.
Only idiots read translations.
If you don't know how to read every single language you are an idiot.

Hello /Lit/
I will be a freshman in a month at Washington and Lee University in Virginia. I would like to expand my mind in order to BE better than my peers. I have started reading many Philosophical / Enlightenment / Revolutionary authors.

I have read:
Candide / Voltaire
The Misanthrope / Moliere
Social Contract / Rousseau
The Republic / Plato
Nicomachean Ethics / Aristotle
Treatises on Government / Locke

Any suggestions on where I should look to next?

If you approach the acquisition of knowledge as a means to an end, you are on the wrong path.

That being said, I would maybe approach the rationalist / empiricist dichotomy in epistemology. Read Descartes' Meditations and Locke+Hume's essays concerning human understanding. The logical step from here is Kant.

If you are interested in pol. phil. and maybe particularly the social contract idea (from reading Rousseau), maybe go back and look at Hobbes' Leviathan.

Revolutionary authors? Proudhon, maybe.

Are the Wizard of Oz novels worth reading? Do they have the same literary influence as Alice in Wonderland? Or is any influence isolated to the movie alone?

Alice in Wonderland has pictures.

The collection of Oz books I'm looking at doesn't include any illustrations.
