ABSTRACT
The first involves the introduction of the dimension of time, to be added to that of space, thus focusing our attention not just on the spatial distance but also on the experience of the temporal interval between two events. In this chapter, the author emphasised there the existence in young people's imagination of a threshold between childhood innocence and adulthood experience, an ambiguous border territory of bodily sensations, interpersonal relationships, emotional commitments, and sexual morality. A wonderful illustration of the importance of memories, during and beyond our existence, is provided by a Japanese film, Afterlife, directed by Hirokazu Kore-eda. When discussing creativity from a psychoanalytic perspective, sometimes the people forget the creative aspects of the psychoanalytic work itself. Not unlike archaeologists, or biographers, the people excavate in order to reconstruct.
