NINO VARGAS, Juan Camilo. DREAM, REALITY, AND KNOWLEDGE: DREAM NOTION AND PHENOMENOLOGY OF DREAM AMONG ETTE INDIANS, NORTH OF COLOMBIA. Antipod. Rev. Antropol. Arqueol. [online]. 2007, n.5, pp.293-315. ISSN 1900-5407.
This paper focuses on the way the ette, an indigenous group of north Colombia, conceive and experience dreams. For this purpose, some aspects of the concept of person, the notion of dreaming and the phenomenology of dream experience are described and analyzed. The article concludes that Indians conceive dreams as real events, based on a type of non-corporal activity in which the person begins to participate of an alternative mode of existence and perception. These characteristics allow to dreamers to take advantage of their experience to acquire culturally legitimated knowledge. In the same way, the paper allows to note the importance of dreams in the course of the reproduction of social life.
