Memory about anthology (12)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

recollection

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'memory' is the definition.
(recollection is a kind of memory)

'about anthology' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'about' could be 're' (regarding) and 're' is found within the answer.
The remaining letters 'collection' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for recollection that I've seen before include "Recall" , "Remembrance" , "Memory" , "mental image" .)
