About Aeschylus
Aeschylus (c. 525/524 – c. 456/455 BCE) was an ancient Greek playwright often regarded as the father of tragedy. He transformed drama by introducing the second actor and expanding the complexity of plot and character, leading to more dynamic performances. His most famous works, including the Oresteia trilogy, explore profound themes of justice, fate, and the human condition, and he profoundly influenced the development of Western theater.
