Flashback and Foreshadowing

The video tutorial explores narrative techniques, focusing on flashback and foreshadowing. Flashbacks transport readers to past events to clarify current situations or character motivations, while foreshadowing hints at future events without leaving the present moment. Examples from O. Henry's 'The Gift of the Magi' and Jack London's 'A Piece of Steak' illustrate these techniques. The tutorial emphasizes the importance of using these techniques purposefully to advance the plot and engage readers.
