Chapter 4 Section 9 Bourne's identity?

Why did he forget who he is? ? ?

In 1887, there was a man named Ansel?Bourne's pastor suddenly disappeared and was never heard from.Pastor Byrne is well-known and well-received in the area and has been on tour for the past 25 years.He suffers from headaches, during which he occasionally loses consciousness for hours. ?
About two months later, in Noristan, Pennsylvania, a panicked man asked, "Where am I now?" He opened a small shop and sold stationery, fruit, candy, etc. No one in the area felt that there was anything abnormal or unnatural about him. ?
But this person now said that his name was Bourne, he had never been to Noristan, and he was not familiar with the small business he was doing now.The last thing he remembered was that he had gone to the bank in Province to withdraw money, as if it were yesterday, and he couldn't believe that it had been a month and a half since he had been in Nolistan. ?
Later, after the local residents called Provins to inquire, they knew that it was true, so Bourne was picked up by his nephew Harris. ?
Bourne, who returned home, had no memory of everything he had been missing for two months.During the month and a half of his small business in Noristan, according to local neighbors, "Brown" was quiet and reserved, but he was by no means a weirdo.He cooked his own meals, made several shopping trips to Philadelphia, attended church regularly, and once gave a brilliant speech at a devotional. ?
In his speech, he mentions a sighting in "Bourne's Personality State" (which means that "Bourne" and "Brown" still communicate on a subconscious level). ?
But Bourne's memory of what happened to him for two weeks was blank. ?
No one had seen him, and Bourne himself could not remember. ?
Mind walk?

American psychologist William?James (William James) told the story about Bourne in his classic masterpiece "Principles of Psychology".Because Bourne became his patient after his return, he tried to integrate the experience of "Bourne" and "Brown" by using "hypnotic suggestion" and other methods, but failed. ?
Bourne's case also belongs to "psychogenic amnesia", but compared with Betty's amnesia due to mental trauma, he suddenly lost his memory and wandered without any reason. ?
