 Flashbacks are interruptions that writers do to insert past events in order to provide background or context to the current events of a narrative.

 In the Book of Matthew, we see a flashback has been used when Joseph sees his brother after several years. Joseph remembered his dreams about his brothers and how they sold him into slavery.

 Author Miller’s “Death of a Salesman” uses flashback to narrate Willy Loman’s memories of the past. At one moment, Willy talks with his dead brother while playing cards with Charley. He relieves a past conversation in the present.

 In “The Cruel Mother,” a mother remembers her murdered child. While going to a church, she remembers her child’s birth, growing up, and death.

 Does anyone have any questions?

 There are many examples of flashback in literature, film, and poetry. They can be hard to find, but if you look hard enough they are worth looking for.
