HAWTHORNE & POE ON DREAMS

The authors use the idea of dreaming to make us think what is real by describing in detail the images they want to paint inside our minds, but then also letting us know that we are dreaming this image, because we don't see it, only imagine what it would look like. The elements that are seen in both pieces, is the element of imagination, because since both are talking about dreams, it is something you can only imagine.
