Definitely c.
Beowulf is both a classic epic and the first piece of literature in English (although you can’t read it without a sheaf of crib sheets).
The North Germanic languages are replete with epics. The Icelandic sagas alone fill a good-sized book.

c. is untrue. Epics are written in all the languages under the sun (even English)!
