It feels blasé to tag this with three huge areas of philosophy, “metaphysics”, “epistemology” and “ontology”. I think epistemology is most central because it’s a question about knowing.

How does one know one is not dreaming?

How could one logically demonstrate to someone skeptical that one is "really" there, and awake, and not just dreaming about the entire world around them?

Which philosophers or philosophies have addressed this problem of how one knows one is, or is not, dreaming?
