Nachtraglichkeit -'Freud used this term repeately in his writings, and it became particularly salient in his analysis of the famous 'Wolf Man' case.

This idea of deferral opens the way for a consideration of lived temporality as retroactive, of origins as events known only in their later construal. The quote is from the indispensiable work by J. Laplanche and J.-B. Pontalis, The Language of Psychoanalysis, 112)' (Ivy 1995: 22n)
