(Extrait : Suivre pas à pas la marche de lesprit humain ...)
Extrait : Suivre pas à pas la marche de lesprit humain dans ses capricieuses pérégrinations à travers un monde idéal ; analyser minutieusement certains détails de nature à jeter une vive lumière sur lensemble du tableau ; demander à lexpérience la solidarité qui sétablit entre les actions de la vie et les illusions de sommeil ; ce thème offre déjà par lui-même un assez remarquable intérêt ; mais sil venait à ressortir de cette étude la preuve que la volonté nest point sans action sur les nombreuses péripéties de notre existence imaginaire, que lon peut guider parfois les illusions du rêve comme les événements du jour, quil nest pas impossible de rappeler quelque vision magique, ainsi quon revient dans la vie réelle à quelque site affectionné, cette perspective mériterait sans doute une attention particulière ; lintérêt prendrait un caractère quon ne lui soupçonnait pas tout dabord. Les rêves ne sont-ils pas la tierce partie de notre existence ? Pour ceux qui cherchent, le phénomène du rêve nest-il pas étroitement lié à ce grand mystère de la dualité psycho-corporelle quon ne se lassera jamais de sonder ? Parmi ceux qui se sentent vivre, enfin, en est-il un qui ne garde, au moins vaguement, le souvenir de quelque vision enchanteresse, ayant laissé dans sa mémoire une douce et ineffaçable impression ?...

Orientalist sinologist man of letters oneirologists
D'Hervey was born on May 6, 1822 in Paris, France, the son of Alexandre Le Coq or Lecoq, Baron d'Hervey (1780-1844), and Mélanie Juchereau de Saint-Denys (1789-1844).
D'Hervey made an intense study of Chinese.
In 1851 D'Hervey published his Recherches sur l'agriculture et l'horticulture des Chinois, in which he dealt with the plants and animals that potentially might be able to be acclimatized to and introduced in Western countries. He translated as well Chinese texts as some Chinese stories, not of classical interest, but valuable for the light they throw on Chinese culture and customs. He was a man of letters too. E. g. he translated some Spanish-language works, and wrote a history of the Spanish drama. D'Hervey also created a literary translation theory. By adoption by his uncle Amédée Louis Vincent Juchereau (1782-1858) he became Marquis de Saint-Denys. In 1874 he succeeded Stanislas Julien in the chair of Chinese at the Collège de France, while in 1878 he was elected a member of the Académie des Inscriptions et de Belles-Lettres. D'Hervey died in his hotel at Paris on 2 November 1892. More recently Hervey de Saint Denys has begun to be known for his introspective studies on dreams. D'Hervey was also one of the earliest oneirologists, and is nowadays regarded as "The Father" of modern lucid dreaming. In 1867 there appeared as an anonymous publication a book entitled Les rêves et les moyens de les diriger; observations pratiques D'Hervey started recording his dreams on a daily basis from the age of 13. In this book, the author proposed a theoretical framework, techniques to control dreams, and he described dreams in which the "dreamer is perfectly aware he is dreaming".
