Древнегреческий эпос был создан, чтобы передаваться из уст в уста — именно этой задумки придерживался Сергей Носов в своем прозаическом переложении «Одиссеи».

Именно фигура рассказчика, влияние его индивидуальности на текст отличает эпос от прочей литературы.

Арап Петра Великого — исторический роман гениального российского поэта, "солнца русской поэзии", драматурга и прозаика А. С. Пушкина (1799–1837).
