I experientially remember, therefore I exist? A reply to R. D. Smith [link]Paper  doi  abstract   bibtex   
[first paragraph] First, let us begin with a summary of Richard Smith's argument. (1) We are, in current education, concerned with the general and the abstract. (2) Personal identity requires memory as a logical component. (3) The most important kind of memory that contributes to personal identity is experien- tial memory. (4) Experiential memory is, by definition, experience of the particular and enjoys a unique cognitive state. (5) An education concerned with the general and the abstract inhibits or discourages the formation of personal identity.
