RESUMO
This is a dissertation about the meanings of dreaming among the peoples of Lowland South America, based on a reading of ethnographies that deal in some way with the dream universe. For several peoples, dreaming is the moment of materialization of the invisible in a space-time which is not necessarily opposed to the real. Often represented as a soul, the idea of a shadow, breath or self that is a part of the person seems to refer to the notion of an Other of the Self. In an attempt to understand the meanings of this soul and Amerindian dreaming, I risk a parallel between the concept of soul as thought by Amerindians and the concept of the unconscious according to Freudian-Lacanian psychoanalysis, starting from the idea that both seek to reflect on the experience of a persons part to which the subject has no access (itself).
