About The Author
Aeschylus
Aeschylus (c. 525-455 B.C.) was an ancient Greek playwright and soldier. His work is the foundation of the tragedy genre, earning him the title “father of tragedy.” Aeschylus claimed a dream in which the god Dionysus inspired him to write plays. While he is estimated to have written nearly one hundred plays, only seven of his works have been recovered.
