ABSTRACT

When that which has been perceived with evidence becomes fixed in memory, then, no matter how the problem of the temporal mode is dealt with, what had earlier been given as a secondary subject is now given as a primary object and the accompanying inner perception is directed upon the recollection. And when a theorem which has been proved becomes fixed in memory, but without the proof which conferred the evidence upon it, then the belief in it without the earlier motivation would seem a different object. If I remember that the theorem has been proved, then again the inner perception of this recollection must be distinguished from the earlier inner perception of the mental process itself which I now remember.40
