Why do we value memory so much? This is the fundamental question that will inform The Mystic Chords of Memory: Memory, Identity, and the World. Some say memory is fundamental to our very identity, and as such we can clearly understand the horror of memory stripping illnesses such as Alzheimer’s disease, and even the smaller disconcerting sensation that accompanies forgetting a name or having a word “on the tip of your tongue.” The Mystic Chords of Memory address what value memory holds for us both as individuals and as communities—particularly when we’re not even thinking about it.
