Author Description

Poetarum Tragicorum Graecorum Fragmenta is a collection of fragments from Greek tragic poets, excluding the works of Aeschylus, Sophocles, and Euripides. This 1848 edition, edited by Friedrich Wilhelm Wagner, gathers the surviving remnants of lesser-known playwrights whose contributions shaped the landscape of ancient Greek drama. Presented in Latin, this volume offers scholars and students access to rare and often overlooked pieces of classical literature. Wagner's compilation provides valuable insights into the diverse voices and dramatic innovations within the broader tradition of Greek tragedy, making it an essential resource for understanding the evolution and scope of this influential art form.
