Sažetak
Experiences of dreams and visions clearly display the social interaction in non-western societies, which consider the world of ghosts to be real. Ethnographic reports prove that western anthropologists who enter their world give accounts of the dreams or visions that correspond to those described by the believers.
A conclusion can be drawn from the examples of experiences of ethnographers in the field-work that it is very important to participate actively in their world, which in this case would mean not to ignore one’s own dreams and visions in the course of the research work, but to share them with the people being studied and to obtain in this way a better picture of that particular society.
