Pierre Wattier published in the seventeenth century the ‘Doctrine and Interpretation of Dreams’ (Doctrine et interprétation des songes), presented as a translation from Arabic by Gabdorrhaman, son of Nosar. Printed in Paris in 1664, the work discusses dream interpretation within an esoteric and possibly pseudo-Arabic context, contributing to the corpus of early modern dream literature in Europe.
