This chapter explores some general laws relating to the revival of images. Specifically, the author maintains that the repeatedly represented past experience is an exceeding complex experience to be capable of being arranged according to any set of laws. Secondly, images and material relations appear in our memory when we think of them, and also without our seeking them. Three Aristotelian laws (contrast, similarity, and contiguity) are discussed. It is concluded that the development of images proceeds mostly from general to particular. However, the conditions are still to be found by which this principle can be changed from a rule to a law.
