In one play, a character goes to this man’s house and exasperates him by requesting a beggar’s outfit and some vegetables. In a different play, this man pleads for someone to spy on his behalf on a gathering of his own female characters. Because the “iron-clamped mace” in this man’s verse is lighter than the “two chariots and two corpses” in his alphabetically prior opponent’s verse, a literal (*) scale in a third play tips in his opponent’s favor. One play invents this man’s fictional relative Mnesilochus, with whom he crashes the women-only Thesmophoria festival. This author died a year before the first performance of another author’s play in which Dionysus judges this man’s plays to be inferior to those of Aeschylus. For 10 points, Aristophanes’ comedies like The Frogs lampoon what Greek tragedian of Medea? ■END■
