epic poetry

Keats is referring to epic poetry when he mentions Homer's 'proud demesne'.

"慈提到荷马的'骄傲的领域'时,他指的是史诗。"

Epic poetry and Tragedy, as also Comedy, Dithyrambic poetry, and most flute-playing and lyre-playing, are all, viewed as a whole, modes of imitation.

史诗、悲剧、喜剧、酒神颂以及绝部分笛子和竖琴演奏都被总体上看成模仿的方式。
