The touch, smell, sound, and visual signals can evoke indexical modes of secondary thoughts in the speaker’s mind. In this paper, we will present some points of view that demonstrative linguistic elements have a multiple nature of contextual surroundings and, among the multiplicity of natures, the memory, which involves a demonstrative mode of presentation of the previous situation. The question reflected into discussion is the following: How previous situation of the autobiographical texts is constructed if demonstrative signals are structurally invisible in the textuality? Considering this principle, the demonstrative signals seem to be linked to as the physical as the psychic field, but still relatively distant from the conscious personal spatial experience of the addresser.
