Marcel Proust’s famous tea & madeleine excerpt from Volume I of his À la recherche du temps perdu suggests that remembering the dead can bring them back to life. Their souls are imprisoned in material objects, earthbound until we set them free.
Remembering is thus a sacred obligation, and forgetting, I might add, can be tantamount to an act of murder.
