The epic is an epic or narrative account, written most of the time in long verse, or prose, which consists of the extensive or rather long narration of momentous or memory-worthy actions / memories for a people around the figure of a representative hero of his most notorious or outstanding virtues. It is one of the oldest literary sub-genres within the most general epic or narrative, where in front of his narrative a world of thoughts and mental explanation was opened.Explanation:In short, the epics imposed an ancient narrative enriched by feats of heroes, many were lost but others were not, this in Roman culture opened doors to narration and a new path towards the writing of the exploits of some Roman heroes.
