    We know of the dreams of resistance fighters - for example, of those who helped the Jews in Denmark and by doing so risked their own lives. These were typically "normal" dreams: that is, dreams of anxiety (about the tortures one suffered at the hands of the SS), dreams of victory and revenge (how one defeated the SS).Hardly any of them were about forcing oneself to obey the enemy by suppressing one's will.

    This dream author, as we have said, belongs to a generation that is not bound up with the past and the Third Reich through either fear or guilt. Her fear is concerned with the present (this dream occurred only a few hours after she had heard a disquieting political speech), and she considers it morally irresponsible to fail to recognize phenomena in the public sphere that threaten one's freedom as a citizen - to fail to recognize them before, like the little man in black, they loom large. This is the lesson of her fable.
    This is also the lesson contained in all these fables that were dreamt during the Third Reich.
    Like all fables, they contain not only a lesson but a warning, the warning that totalitarian tendencies must be recognized before they become overt - before the guise is dropped ... , before people no longer may speak the word "I" and must guard their tongue so that not even they understand what they say, and before we begin to actually live the "Life Without Walls."

    These dreams describe in astonishing detail the type of person who was forced to emigrate when no longer young, forever possessed by a homesickness which is expressed in an inability to grasp the new and a rejection of all that is unfamiliar - a state of mind many emigres never did overcome even after they arrived safely abroad -another of the bloodless tragedies that occurred because of the Third Reich.
