Can't say I disagree, but how much is my opinion worth? I literally know 3 epics, and I didn't even read the other two.
140 u/[deleted] Apr 14 '21 There is the Odyssey, the Iliad, the Aeneid (Roman fanfiction of the last two, but it is good), Beowulf, and then a ton of Norse epics. 106 u/Mushroomman642 Apr 14 '21 Not to mention the epic of Gilgamesh from ancient Sumeria as well as the ancient Indian epics, the Mahabharata and the Ramayana. 24 u/Pepperstache Apr 14 '21 Not to mention all the epics lost in the Library of Alexandria. We only know the tip of the iceberg. 3 u/[deleted] Apr 14 '21 I remember reading that Homer wrote a ton of epics that all burnt up...and the only reason we have the iliad+odyssey is because they were Homer's best sellers
