Abstract

Memory has its origins in the soul. Whatever we might think about the soul today, speculation about the relation between memory and the soul forms an important part of the history of Western metaphysics. In Plato’s Theaetetus, for example: The soul is immortal and has been many times reborn; and since it has seen all things, both in this world and in the other, there is nothing it has not learnt. No wonder, then, that it can recover the memory of what it has formerly known.
