Noun

pl: flashbacks

This term describes a sudden temporal shift in perception, moving from the present back to a specific point in the past. In psychological contexts, it carries a heavy connotation of involuntariness and distress, often linked to PTSD or trauma, where the memory is not merely recalled but re-experienced as if it were happening in the present.

In narrative arts, the term is a technical device used to provide exposition or character motivation. A narrative flashback typically involves a complete shift in the scene's setting and time, effectively pausing the primary plot to reveal prior events.
