= Afterwardsness
{wiki=Afterwardsness}
"Afterwardsness" is a concept derived from the French term "Après-coup," which was introduced by the psychoanalyst Sigmund Freud. It refers to the idea that events or experiences can be reinterpreted or recontextualized in light of later developments, often in a way that alters their meaning or significance. Essentially, the understanding and impact of an experience can change after the fact, particularly when new information or insights come to light.
