An epic poem is a story; a fictional situation set in the past. It can be written now or then but it uses an outstanding character who has the courage to confront anything to save someone else. I believe there must be a hero and a difficulty to solve and a message for everyone who reads it. Although, the story is the same I think the message is going to be received/perceived in many different ways.
Being an active reader will be always important because an epic poem could be very different from our own lives, however, we can use our experiences to make it ours.

What a great definition. I believe that your definitation of epic comment was quite assertive. You used good word and you were also concrete.
