Meaning and background
The story behind Trilogy
A trilogy is a group of three related works, especially novels, plays or films. Its route through Greek *trilogia* is recorded in English dictionaries and distinguishes it from a general word for any group of three. Trilogy therefore has a literary and cinematic association, not just a numerical one. It is a relatively long dog name but has a predictable stress pattern.
- Meaning
- A sequence of three related literary, theatrical or cinematic works. Source
