From The Poetics of Space, Gaston BachelardMemories of dreams, however, which only poetic
meditation can help us to recapture, are more confused,
less clearly drawn. The great function of poetry is to give
us back the situations of our dreams. The house we were
born in is more than an embodiment of home, it is also an
embodiment of dreams. Each one of its nooks and corners
was a resting-place for daydreaming. And often the restingplace particularized the daydream. Our habits of a particular daydream were acquired there.
The house, the bedroom,
the garret in which we were alone, furnished the framework for an interminable dream, one that poetry alone,
through the creation of a poetic work, could succeed in
achieving completely. If we give their function of shelter
for dreams to all of these places of retreat, we may say, as
I pointed out in an earlier work, that there exists for each
one of us an oneiric house, a house of dream-memory, that
is lost in the shadow of a beyond of the real past.
