Descripción del proyecto
Los enfoques simulacionistas de la memoria objetiva.
La memoria episódica nos permite recordar acontecimientos concretos de nuestro pasado a través de imágenes conscientes. Sin embargo, se han pasado por alto casos de recuerdo imaginario que no están dirigidos a un acontecimiento y que se refieren a objetos. En el proyecto MEMOBJECT, financiado con fondos europeos, se estudiará la «memoria objetiva» basándose en ideas simulacionistas y examinándolas. Se determinará en qué consiste el recuerdo objetual y qué implicaciones tiene esto para entender el contenido, las imágenes y la estructura del recuerdo en general.
Objetivo
Much attention in our theorizing about the mind has been devoted to episodic memory. In episodic memory, a subject remembers an event from their personal past in a way accompanied by conscious imagery, typically from the first-person perspective, through which they 're-live' the experience. Other species of memory are no less significant to our mental lives, however. We remember objectsfor example, one's first car, or one's childhood family dogand we do so in ways which may outstrip our memory of events in which those objects featured. It is possible, for example, to remember a face while having no sense of where in one's past one's memory of it derives. While we presently lack a philosophical account distinctive of what I will call 'objectual memory', the raw materials are there for the taking. This project will use state of the art, 'simulationist' approaches to memory in order to address this lacuna, establishing the following core hypothesis: Objectual memory is not a mere form of episodic or semantic memory (Work Package 1). We can best understand it, in harmony with broadly simulationist approaches to remembering, as a kind of epistemically informed imagination (Work Package 2). Though broadly simulationist in character, this view is compatible with experiences of objectual memory constituting a direct relation to the past (Work Package 3). This project has immediate implications for philosophy of mind and epistemology, but it also generates questions for the sciences. If objectual memory is to be considered a product of the so-called 'episodic' memory system, it is misleading to think of this system as a means of constructing temporally structured episodes from ones past. For the system also produces occasions for the awareness of past objectsthings which lack an essentially temporal structure. Alternatively, if the episodic memory system is confined to the awareness of events, objectual memory must be the product of another system.
