Hello everybody,

I am looking for books about memory - techniques.

I would dearly appreciate any information about memory- techniques and

or books about this subject.

I am searching as well for books which might deal with the old (forgotten)
techniques of the times when printing books was not invented yet.

Thank you very much.

Just to let you know that I would like to memorize the chapters and verses but
the only way I do it is do it on tapes as I have a problem with reading. How can
I do this. Thanks God Bless Elizabeth S. Foisy

Keith (and the rest of the group),

If you have the time I would like to ask you and everyone else on the group if
they could write out in detail what they have learned regarding the subject of
memory training as it applies to memorizing scripture. I am specifically talking
about special memory tricks and methods, not so much time and materials
organization.

If it is possible, include as many specific examples as you can using actual
scripture passages that you have memorized.

I am now in the final stages of developing a Windows computer program which will
replace the old DOS program that has been available for the last four years.  I
hope to have it available on the Web within the next six weeks or so.  As part
of the program I have written several essays on the topic of scripture
memorization.  One of the essays, which is currently in the process of being
written concerns the mechanics of memorization.  I have read several books on
memory training and the subject of mnemonics and find it a fairly easy task to
write about the topic of memorization methods in general, but find am having
some trouble applying it to the memorization of scripture, especially in bulk.

Any ideas will be of great help.

(Note any ideas that you share should be public domain, uncopyrighted ideas or
be supplied with a source or reference so it can be properly noted in the
essay.)

While I am at it, I have a second request.  I am also collecting lists of verses
which you would recommend be memorized.  I will also be including a essay giving
people some suggestions as to which sets of verses would be good to memorize.
Perhaps this section will be directed to the memorizer who is first starting
out, but it could also be useful for anyone in general.  (Note also that these
lists should be public domain lists which are not part of any other book or
product.)


Thanks,

I have read nearly everything I can get my hands on on the subject of memory
training. I use these techniques all the time and have adapted them to Bible
memorization very successfully. My favourites are:

Extremely thorough and practical:

An excellent book designed for kids originally. Colourful and easy to use.

Look for this ...

The Art of Memory
by Frances A. Yates

"The Art of Memory (University of Chicago, 1974). This book is one of the
classic history texts, a scholarly work on a subject that had not received much
attention, yet written in a way that it has become a lay classic. Yates was also
famous for her biography of Giordano Bruno."

This book is amazing.
