Info about his plays
Modern scholarship has shown that the first of Aeschylus's plays was The Persians. It is also the only play on a historical subject that has survived in Greek drama. This play is seen from a Persian point of view. His theme sought to show how a nation could suffer due to its pride. Out of his ninety plays only seven are still preserved.
Prometheus Bound is perhaps Aeschylus' most well-known tragedy.
