Abstract

Here I focus on some aspects related to the creativity of the memory in connection with what the philosopher Charles Sanders Peirce called abduction. In cases of episodic memory, the access to memories may be reconstructed following an abductive framework. In this analysis, I would like to highlight how the fallibility character of the abductive processes disappears when our memory provides us with creative “ideas” (memories), i.e. not faithful to reality.
