Résumé

Les marocains accordent une grande importance au reve et a son interpretation. Ce phenomene est particulierement vivace dans la societe feminine. Un corpus de reves, soumis a differents types d'interpretations, a revele plusieurs themes. Dans une premiere etape, 101 reves sur la sexualite feminine, centree sur le mariage, en ont ete retenus. Des syntagmes recurrents dans le contenu manifeste et reintegres au vecu quotidien des reveuses, ont montre l'influence ecrasante de la culture dominante sur la psychologie feminine. Cette approche a ete justifiee theoriquement. Dans une seconde etape, un expose a porte sur l'interpretation des reves, selon la culture islamique classique. Celle-la serait a pourvoir d'une theorie de la psyche telle la freudienne ou la jungienne. Une psychologie de l'etre islamique serait a developper. La philosophie avicennienne, disposant d'une theorie de la psyche et du reve, a ete citee comme exemple. Selon ces donnees, des interpretations relatives a un sous-groupe des 101 reves, en ont demontre la transformation en reves premonitoires et l'existence d'un imaginaire. Celui-ci est particulierement hypertrophie lorsque se rencontrent reves, mort, maraboutisme, demonisme et magie, themes etudies a travers 34 autres reves.

Moroccans attach a great importance to dreams and to their interpretations. This phenomenon persits particularly within feminine society. A corpus of dreams which was the object of different interpretations has revealed several themes. Firstly, we have dealt with 101 dreams on feminine sexuality, with focus on marriage. Recurrent syntagmas in the manifest content were reintegrated into the dreamers' daily life. This has shown the overwhelming influence of dominant culture on femimine psychology, and theoretical justifications for such a finding were elaborated. Secondly, we have provided a detailed presentation on dream interpretation within the islamic classical culture, bringing out that there is still need for a theory of the psyche, such as freud's or jung's. Suggestions were made as to how one might develop a psychology of the islamic being which would be grounded in islamic philosophy. Avicenna's theory of the psyche and of dreaming was mentioned as a case in point. On such a theretical basis, an analysis of interpretations concerning a subgroup of the 101 dreams has revealed their transformation into premonetory dreams as well as the existence of an imaginary production. The latter is particularly overwhelming when dreams, death, maraboutism, demonism, and magic meet. These themes were analyzed through a sample of 34 other dreams.
