EXAMPLES OF A FLASHBACK
The Bible is a good source of flashback examples:
In the Book of Matthew, we see a flashback has been used when Joseph, governor of Egypt, sees his brothers after several years, Joseph “remembered his dreams” about his brothers and how they sold him into slavery in the past.

Progymnasmata:
Preliminary rhetorical exercises that introduce
students to basic rhetorical concepts and strategies.
In classical rhetorical training, the progymnasmata
were "structured so that the student moved from
strict imitation to a more artistic melding of the
often disparate concerns of speaker, subject, and
audience" (Encyclopedia of Rhetoric and
Composition, 1996).
