Yates traces the art of memory from its treatment by Greek orators, through its Gothic transformations in the Middle Ages, to the occult forms it took in the Renaissance, and finally to its use in the seventeenth century. This book, the first to relate the art of memory to the history of culture as a whole, was revolutionary when it first appeared and continues to mesmerize readers with its lucid and revelatory insights.Hide synopsis

This book is a classic, and unreplaced by any of the subsequent works on memory treatises. Particularly productively provocative are the comments on contemporaneous art and literature, and how the structures of memory treatises may have affected these.
