1. episodic memory

   Episodic memory is a type of long-term memory that involves the recollection of specific events, situations and experiences in one's personal past, including the time and place they occurred. It is a component of declarative memory, which allows individuals to consciously recall facts and events. This memory allows individuals to travel back in time mentally to revisit or replay these events, which are stored with specific contexts and are often very rich in sensory and emotional details.

1. Episodic memory

   Episodic memory is the memory of autobiographical events that can be explicitly stated. It is the collection of past personal experiences that occurred at a particular time and place. For example, recalling the celebration of July 4th. This allows you to figuratively travel back in time to remember the event which took place at that particular time and place. Semantic and episodic memory together make up the category of declarative memory, which is one of the two major divisions in memory. The counterpart to declarative, or explicit memory, is procedural memory, or implicit memory. The term Episodic Memory was coined by Endel Tulving in 1972. He was referring to the distinction between knowing and remembering. Knowing is more factual whereas remembering is a feeling that is located in the past. Tulving has seminally defined three key properties of episodic memory recollection. These are: a subjective sense of time, connection to the self, and autonoetic consciousness. Autonoetic consciousness refers to a special kind of consciousness that accompanies the act of remembering which enables an individual to be aware of the self in a subjective time. Aside from Tulving, others named the important aspects of recollection which includes visual imagery, narrative structure, retrieval of semantic information and the feelings of familiarity.
