What does it mean when an epic is said to begin in medias res?

Medias res means the middle things. So if an epic is said to begin in the middle of things, the epic would be starting from the middle of the story. It is a narrative technique in which setting, characters, etc. would be revealed by the telling of the past within the story. The epic would most likely start with a dramatic scene or with the conclusion. So the epic could start at the end or at the climax of the story and then the characters could relate what happened. Examples would be The tale of the ancient mariner, the Illiad, and The Odyssey.
