C.. As diversas conquistas, guerras e epidemias alteraram drasticamente a postura do grego em rela??o a sua vida p?blica, a sua concep??o de deuses e, consequentemente, a constru??o de seus espa?os, sejam eles profanos ou sagrados. Atrav?s das fontes, percebemos que o culto do deus Ascl?pio se tornou bastante popular, neste contexto, sobretudo, gra?as ? maneira peculiar que o deus se relacionava com seus devotos, atrav?s de sonhos. Sabemos que o sonho era tido, para os gregos, como um espa?o de exist?ncia real, era um espa?o sagrado, e poderia ser acessado nos rituais de cura de Ascl?pio. O nosso trabalho se prop?e, deste modo, a compreender o curioso e peculiar espa?o on?rico, principalmente atrav?s das inscri??es, das estruturas arquitet?nicas do santu?rio e dos textos antigos que fazem refer?ncia ao contexto do per?odo, pois entendemos que este espa?o foi a condi??o essencial para a populariza??o do culto, pois colocava o indiv?duo em contato direto com a divindade, numa rara proximidade entre homens e deuses admitida pelo imagin?rio grego at? ent?o / Profound changes have marked Greek society from the fourth century B.C.. Conquests, wars and epidemics altered drastically the Greek?s posture regarding his public life, his conception of gods and hence the construction of their spaces, whether sacred or profane. Through the fonts, we perceived that the cult of god Asklepeios turned very popular, in this context, for the peculiar way that the god relates to his devotees, through the dreams. We know that the dream was held, for the Greeks, as a space of real existence, it was sacred, and could be accessed in the healing rituals of Asklepios. Our work intends, thereby, to understand the curious and peculiar oniric space, mainly through the inscriptions, architectural structures of the sanctuary and the ancient texts that refer to the context of the period, because we understand that this space was the essential condition for the popularization of the cult, it placed the individual in direct contact with the divinity, a rare closeness between men and gods accepted by the greek imagery until then.
