Explanation:

Greek tragedy is a form of drama, popular in Greece and in the Mediterranean world in ancient times since the 6th century BCE. Some scholars say that its origins are in epic poetry; other scholars draw attention to the rituals of the worship of the god Dyonisos. Aeschylus, Sophocles and Euripides are the major drama writers. Their works find inspiration in the themes of Greek mythology.

“the iliad” (gr: “iliás”) is an epic poem by the ancient greek poet homer, which recounts some of the significant events of the final weeks of the trojan war and the greek siege of the city of troy (which was also known as ilion, ilios or ilium in ancient times).
