BOTELLA, Sára. The memory of dream: an epistemic conflict in Freudian psychoanalytic theory.Traduzido porClaudia Berliner. Rev. bras. psicanál [online]. 2015, vol.49, n.2, pp. 142-153. ISSN 0486-641X.

The notion of "memory of the dream" (Traumgedächtnis) is presented in Freud's early work, since the first chapter of The interpretation of dreams. It reveals that Freud was interested in the "experiences" and the "sensorial impressions" of the "earliest childhood". However, the importance given to the memory of "living" the early childhood - a memory that only dreams are able to preserve (a "memory without memory") - will disappear to make way for the memory of "infantile transference", of the content of the reported dream, which brings represented memories. It starts especially from the second decade of the 20th Century. In the author's opinion, Freud imposes a limit on his method, and reduces the rememorization field. It makes the return of the 1900's thinking in Freud's late work even more outstanding. In 1938, the return to the notion of "memory of the dream" (in An outline of psychoanalysis) should be understood as the moment when the method is extended, as a Freud's suggestion of the path that should be taken in order to access the not representable traumas of the "earliest childhood"; without that, analysis has no success, just like happened in the case of the Wolf Man.
