The Creative Power of Memory

Jefferson A. Singer, Ph.D., Faulk Foundation Professor of Psychology, Connecticut College

$10 (Members 10% discount)

This talk discusses a particular type of personal memory studied by psychologists - the "self-defining memory"— a vivid, emotionally evocative memory that is linked to ongoing themes and/or conflicts in an individual's personality. A valuable resource in self-understanding and psychotherapy, they can also be fertile sources of creativity. Examples are drawn from art, film, and literature, including Louise Bourgeois, Steven Spielberg, and Robert Louis Stevenson, among others. To learn more about self-defining memories, see http://www.self-definingmemories.com/
