A flashback occurs in a passage when the author wants to give information from the past. It can give more detail about a character or an event that happened. It builds on traditional plot structure
because when Odysseus went and prayed to all of the gods who owned Olympus when he closed his eyes they did nothing but make him go to sleep. And that resulted in his men eating the cattle of Helios again which made Helios mad and he told Zeus that if he didn't punish the men the sun would never come up which would have resulted in the crops not growing and people dying from starvation.
