Heroic poems, also known as EPICS and epopees, are a type of narrative poem that tell stories of heroic deeds and adventures. They often involve gods, goddesses, and other supernatural elements, and are usually set in a distant past. Epic poems typically focus on a single hero or group of heroes, and often include themes of courage, honor, and loyalty. Examples of epic poems include Homer's Iliad and Odyssey, Virgil's Aeneid, and Beowulf.
