Anamnesis means remembrance or reminiscence, the collection and re-
collection of what has been lost, forgotten, or effaced. It is therefore a 
matter of the very old, of what has made us who we are. But anamnesis is 
also a work that transforms its subject, always producing something new. 
To recollect the old, to produce the new: that is the task of Anamnesis.
