Whereas [[remembering]] is the act whereby some [[event]] or [[signifier]] is registered for the first time in the [[symbolic]] [[memory]], [[recollection]] is the act whereby such an [[event]] or [[signifier]] is [[recalled]].

[[Reminiscence]] involves reliving [[past]] experience and feeling once again the [[emotion]]s associated with that experience.
While it is true that intense [[memories]] may be evoked in [[psychoanalytic treatment]], with accompanying [[emotion]]al [[discharge]], this is not the basis of the [[analytic process]].
[[Reminiscence]] is also linked by [[Lacan]] to the [[Plato]]nic theory of [[knowledge]]. ---
[[Recollection]] in the [[treatment]] involves the [[patient]] tracing the [[master signifier]]s of his life.
