I am taking a literature class this semster and today we talked about literary traditions, one being the epic tradition of Homor etc. According to the definition of the epic my professor gave, Lord of the Rings in an epic. The definition is: National Scale, Intense Conflict, Rise of the warrior/king above the conflict.
