7 a) Read the theory box. An epic is traditionally a poem, but it can also be a
novel or a film. Epics have several things in common:
Setting: the action takes place over many years and
in a large area (e.g. an entire country or countries).
Characters: there is usually a hero who performs
great deeds, and one or more evil characters who
oppose him.
Events: the main events often include battles,
adventures, and a long journey.
Examples are: Homer's Odyssey (an epic poem from
ancient Greece), A Game of Thrones by George R. R.
Martin (a series of epic novels), and The Lord of the
Rings (a trilogy of epic films, based on the books by
J.R.R. Tolkien).
