Analogist recollected wistful memories (9)
I believe the answer is:
nostalgia
'wistful memories' is the definition.
'nostalgia' can be an answer for 'memories' (I've seen this before). I'm unsure of the 'wistful' bit.
'analogist recollected' is the wordplay.
'recollected' is an anagram indicator (letters recollected and rearranged).
'analogist' anagrammed gives 'NOSTALGIA'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for nostalgia that I've seen before include "Sense of past perfect" , "Longing for something past - isn't a goal (anag)" , "Fond remembrance" , "A longing for past times" , "A sentimental longing of analogist" .)
