Question

Select the correct answer. which of these playwrights is considered one of the greatest greek writers of comic drama? a. plautus b. terence c. seneca d. aristophanes

Answer 1

Aristophanes is considered one of the greatest greek writers of comic drama.

Aristophanes is the greatest representative of ancient Greek comedy and the most surviving of his works. He is the only surviving representative of the old comedy, the stage of comedic dramaturgy in which choir, pantomime and burlesque still play an important role and are characterized by daring imagination and ruthless insults.  

Satire, ridiculously rampant humor, and freedom of political criticism stand out. However, Aristophanes belongs to the end of this stage, and his last surviving play, which contains no choral elements at all, is considered the only surviving example of short-lived middle-comedy written before the end of the 4th century BC.

The correct answer is option D.
