It has been argued that adult humans are absolutely time biased towards the future, at least as far as purely hedonic experiences (pain/pleasure) are concerned. What this means is that they assign zer...

"I should say that there are a great many different experiences, some of them feelings, which we might call 'experiences (feelings) of familiarity'." Some reflections in the spirit of Wittgenstein's remark:

What does the feeling of familiarity tell us about episodic memory and how we should study it? Today at the Memory Palace, Christoph Hoerl (University of Warwick) discusses this challenging question about memory for our personal past. @christophhoerl.bsky.social

Coming up in Philosophical Transactions B: 'The history of episodic memory'

The history of episodic memory. Christoph Hoerl and Teresa McCormack

Over the course of his research, Endel Tulving offered a number of
somewhat different characterizations of episodic memory. Do they indicate that he changed his mind over time as to what episodic memory is, or did his core understanding of the nature of episodic memory stay the same? We offer some support for the latter claim, and for thinking that, throughout his life, Tulving took as a defining feature of episodic memory the distinctive awareness of the self in time it involves. We argue that it is easier to see the continuities rather than the discontinuities in Tulving’s writings once their historical context is taken into account, where this involves both the authors who influenced his thinking, as well as the intellectual climate at at the different times he was writing. We also discuss two recent bodies of work on episodic memory that take aspects of Tulving’s writings as their point of departure.
