Epics are oral tales or poems that were narrated orally through traditional methods which were handed down from one generation to the other before they started writing them down. Most epics are mytholical histories that talk about great figures from history and historical events. An example of a historical epic is the "Trojan War".
Oral epic traditions are passed down from one generation to another. As epics are passed on the language and story is refined or fine tuned to suit each generation.
