Abstract
The image of memory storage suggested by modern neuroscience is far less dramatic than Freud’s vision of an unconscious that is roiling and boiling with disturbing memories of lust and abuse. However, perhaps there are some parallels between those models. Here I examine first the more sedate modern image of the unconscious, but I begin with Freud’s consciousness—what we call working memory.
