Article description: (description)
This attribute controls the content of the description and og:description elements. | Epic poetry has a bad habit of, at some point, padding out the story with a long list of characters, often famous historical or mythic figures. Some critics even consider this one of the genre's defining characteristics. In very old works, this can be valuable resource for historians.
