Oppose proposed merge with flashforward. Prolepsis is a form of rhetoric, whereas flashforward is generally an editing technique. The concepts are similar but not necessarily identical, and generally are discussed in separate forums. Girolamo Savonarola 14:26, 1 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Support move. Prolepsis as a narrative term is used extensively in literary criticism (see Mullan, J. How Novels Work, (OUP 2006).) 'Flashforward' is merely a 'plain-speaking' version of 'prolepsis' (although prolepsis has additional meanings). As the articles stand, neither 'flashforward' nor 'prolepsis' has anything of substance to say about the literary narrative technique. Further, since the articles 'analepsis' and 'flashback' are merged it seems inconsistent not to do likewise here.--Stevouk 14:34, 6 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Not only do I support this merge but I would furthermore propose the merge of analepsis and flashback into a new article containing all of the above, since all are narrative techniques in which a narrative's discourse re-order's a given story.Sgv 6618 (talk) 08:49, 8 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Isn't the 4th philosophical term akin to, or even the same as, a priori? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 195.229.237.39 (talk) 13:26, 18 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
