In literature, an epigraph is a phrase, quotation, or poem that is set at the beginning of a document, monograph, or section thereof. The epigraph may serve as a preface to the work; as a summary; as a counter-example; or as a link from the work to a wider literary canon, with the purpose of either inviting comparison or enlisting a conventional context.
