Word of the Day: Anamnesis

Anamnesis (noun)- A lembrança ou recordação do passado; histórico médico de um paciente.

O termo Anamnesis vem de raízes do grego ana (“re”) e mimnḗskein (“to call to mind”).

The narrator of Dostoevsky’s Dream of a Ridiculous Man visits in his sleep, in a state of anamnesis perhaps, a humanity living in the Golden Age before the loss of innocence and happiness.
