Abstract

Information processing streams that proceed through the sensory unimodal and multimodal areas of the cerebral cortex, and hence the limbic system, bring from perception to memory. This itinerary through the neural networks underlying perception and cognition is briefly outlined through famous passages from Marcel Proust's "Swann's Way", in which the flavour of the "petites madeleines" triggers vivid recollection.
