Excerpt from The Journal of Philosophy; Philosophy and Scientific Methods, Vol. 4: January December, 1907 The determination of the presence of Special groups of organic sensations in perception has brought with it the question as to their presence and function in memory consciousness. The discovery that in the recognition of a stimulus presented a second time the special sense image of the first stimulus may be absent, while organic factors aroused by the first reappear to mediate recognition, has initiated a Wide departure from the view of memory as made up of special sense images. It has, further, made possible a reinterpretation of animal consciousness, viewed essentially from an evolutionary stand point. Animal psychology has denied memory of any sort to some animals. It has, on the other hand, attributed different forms of memory to those that manifest the ability to learn.3 We are thus brought to the general view of possibly a wide discrepance between the inner organization of perceptive and memory consciousness. Certain factors that are present in the former may never reappear in the latter. What is useful to the life of the organism in percep tion may not be thus useful in memory, while, as we have indeed always supposed, certain new elements in memory may be necessary to serve a function not shared by perceptive experience. We are confronted by the general problem of the analysis of the memory consciousness. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at ...
