Captions available

The idea

A careful epic definition with five working clauses, and sound entries for allegory, fable and archetype. The epic entry in particular is more demanding than most, and entry 1536's trap is defeated by using it as written.

In practice

A five-clause epic definition.

Where people slip

Using it as written defeats a trap.
