On memories and poetic(s) of space(s)

"Our memories are encumbered with facts. Beyond the recollections we continually hark back to, we should like to relive our suppressed impressions and the dreams that made us believe in happiness: Ou vous ai-je perdue, mon imagerie pietinee (Where did I lose you, my trampled fantasies?) If we have retained an element of dream in our memories, if we have gone beyond merely assembling exact recollections, bit by bit the house that was lost in the mists of time will appear from out the shadow. We do nothing to reorganize it; with intimacy it recovers its entity, in the mellowness and imprecision of the inner life. It is as though something fluid had collected our memories and we ourselves were dissolved in this fluid of the past."

And central to this anticipatory aspect is the employment of tonality, obeying the logic of modulation, succession, and resolution."
