Freud, through the Interpretation of dreams, helped cement the theory that stated that memory is not a monolithic aggregate but, rather, it seems to grow from fantasies and expectations, so much so that, it is hard to tell unambiguously if a memory is only the result of a past experience or a reconstructed composite made up of current and past experiences. A “false” memory, therefore, can be implanted in someone´s mind, just like in the example above.
