One of my favorite concepts from The Unbearable Lightness of Being by Milan Kundera is the idea of poetic memory. He defines poetic memory as a meta language that human beings build based on memory. It is similar to the difference between connotative and denotative. Denotatively, for example, the word "rain" simply means the precipitation of water, as the dictionary says it is. Connotatively, however, rain means more than just precipitation to many of us.

The authorities did not make life pleasant for Rizal, Santos and Kundera.
