Augustine and the Locus of Collective Memory

In his confession X and XI, the purpose of Augustine is to solve interesting problems of memory and time respectively. His phenomenology and a strict approach attracted many later critics. Paul Ricoeur (1913-2005) is one of them, but Ricoh's view is decisively different from Augustine's view - it can be said that it represents a kind of 'interpretation of reason'. In this article, we will look at Rico's response to the possibility and location of collective memory (part 1), and the challenging question of August "enid enim tempus?", Taking the material of Ricoeur as a cornerstone. (Part 2)

In Augustine's confession X, Augustine focused on the existence of the world in God. He accomplishes this by examining memory; it is related to self and power. St. Augustine used memory as unconscious knowledge, which ultimately made him understand God. Augustine will no longer convey past events, but only the current events. Augustine began analyzing his memory from the description of the house "various images used to convey it through the warehouse, senses" (X: Chapter 8, 214). Warehouse is the place to place, get and resave objects, just as you need to save or restore images in our memory. Augustine gives the characteristics of memory as if it is substantial; it is reliable, everything has its own position, it can contain unlimited information. Memory exists in the past and no one at present can take it away from us.

In his confession X and XI, the purpose of Augustine is to solve interesting problems of memory and time respectively. His phenomenology and a strict approach attracted many later critics. Paul Ricoeur (1913-2005) is one of them, but Ricoh's view is decisively different from Augustine's view - it can be said that it represents a kind of 'interpretation of reason'. - Condition or composition: Augustus is in the handling of God "Desire for God is written in the human heart" Catechism pointed out (n.27). To some extent, humans try to find the ultimate reality of things, composition of the universe, its purpose, its purpose, and so on.
