Aeschylus

Aeschylus was an ancient Greek playwright widely regarded as the father of tragedy, credited with introducing the second actor to drama and thus enabling true dialogue and dramatic conflict. He fought at the Battle of Marathon and wrote over 90 plays, of which seven survive, including the Oresteia trilogy. His works explored themes of justice, fate, and the relationship between humans and the gods.
