Memory palaces and Mnemosyne

#greek-myth#rhetoric#reading-notes

Started this after re-reading The Art of Memory (Yates, 1966). I keep circling the idea that memory is not just storage here. It feels more like a place you can walk through, which might explain why the palace image sticks.

In Theogony, lines 53–67Mnemosyne comes before the Muses, so maybe poetry needs memory before it can become song. Need to check that against Method of loci — Cicero, De Oratore and Quintilian, Institutio Oratoria.

Relevant reads: Lethe — the river of forgetting, Phaedrus — Theuth & Thamus, Memory palace — structure.
