I heard that 99% of all of these documents have been lost. What are some notable ones??
So much of Aeschylus is missing. He pretty much invented Greek tragedy.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aeschylus
He wrote somewhere between 70 and 90 plays, of which only 7 survive.
Pretty much the same for Aristophenes, only now we’re talking comedy instead of tragedy.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aristophanes
11 surviving plays (Lysistrata is LEGIT!), 30 or so missing. :(
“Frying-Pan Men” ? I want to know that story…

Things like this are why I love Wikipedia
Been loving the phone app myself lately. Must have 30 tabs open right now. Very smooth with the bookmarking…
