Syn: {Memory}, {Remembrance}, {Recollection}, {Reminiscence}.
Usage: Memory is the generic term, denoting the power by
which we reproduce past impressions. Remembrance is an
exercise of that power when things occur spontaneously
to our thoughts. In recollection we make a distinct
effort to collect again, or call back, what we know
has been formerly in the mind. Reminiscence is
intermediate between remembrance and recollection,
being a conscious process of recalling past
occurrences, but without that full and varied
reference to particular things which characterizes
recollection. ``When an idea again recurs without the
operation of the like object on the external sensory,
it is remembrance; if it be sought after by the mind,
and with pain and endeavor found, and brought again
into view, it is recollection.'' --Locke.
[1913 Webster]
{To draw to memory}, to put on record; to record. [Obs.] --Chaucer. Gower. [1913 Webster]
