The main source of interest in dreams outside of philosophy traditionally has been dream interpretation and whether dreams are a source of knowledge and insight.
Historically, the epistemic (relating to knowledge or to the degree of its validation) status of dreams and the use of prophetic and diagnostic dreams was not just a theoretical, but a practical problem
In Freudian dream theory, dream interpretation once more assumed a prominent role as the royal road to knowledge of the unconscious. This was associated with claims about the psychic sources of dreaming. Freud (1899) also rejected the influence of external or bodily sources, as championed by contemporary proponents of somatic-stimulus
(relating to the body, especially as distinct from the mind.) theory
