Flashback
The writer uses the literary technique of "flashbacks" to reveal events that happened earlier in the story in "The Odyssey." Flashbacks are narrative devices that allow the author to interrupt the chronological flow of the story and provide background information or context for the reader.

When The Odyssey begins Odyseeus has already defeated the Trojans (including the plan of the Trojan horse) and is on his way home to Ithaca to regain his kingdom.
"In medias res" is a storytelling technique where a narrative begins in the middle of the action rather than starting at the beginning. Examples of ancient Greek literature that use this technique include the "Odyssey" by Homer, which opens with Odysseus already in his journey home, and "The Iliad," which begins with the conflict in the Trojan War. This technique captures the audience's attention and creates a sense of immediacy in the story.
