Summary/Abstract: The theme selection is on the track of attempts to research through analysis and interpretations, how the theme of dream evolves through years 1990-2000 in Albanian editions (Albanian literature and translated literature) based on the bibliographic evidence of editions in the National Library of Albania. This paper aims to justify the place that the dream as a topic has in the editions of this period of time. The varieties of dream in these editions are different (dream as a wish, dream as a challenge, dream as determinant of fate, dream as pain and suffer etc.) Furthermore, this paper has aimed to reveal the theme of dream through literary genres based on literary-textual guidelines and not ethnographic or psychological ones. There are brought on focus researches of new occurrences related to a point of view completely literary and aesthetic of the dream as a model of interpretation. In this working we will analyse the dream as a form of artistic organization in the structure of the literary system. Through this paper we aim to come in conclusions and recommendations of high importance through analysis and interpretations to make the readers realise the varieties of dream and its different forms in the Albanian literature of these years. This form of dream occurrence in the Albanian literature of that decade will be realised through the combination of quantitative method with that qualitative. What is fundamental in our working is, the intensity of information “vertically” remains much more important than the quantity, “horizontal” extension. The entire study based on these principles would give us an adequate interpretation of dream that is quite complicated.
