An epic tale can also be defined as _______.
(my answer)A.a long narrative poem
B.a historical chronicle in verse
C.a dramatic retelling of a country's history

I went back through the text we read and my notes from the lesson and "epic tale" was never mentioned! Please help, I know it has to be between A and B.

A. is correct. An epic tale is often not based on historic facts.
