Greek literature boasts three great writers of tragedy whose works are extant: Aeschylus, Sophocles, and Euripides.
There are four famous ancient Greek playwrights. Sophocles is the most famous writer of tragedies; his Oedipus Rex is one of the world's most famous plays. Euripides is also a very famous tragedian who wrote several plays including Hippolytus, Bacchae, Alcestis and one of his most famous, Medea. Aeschylus was a third famous tragedian. The most famous comic writer was Aristophanes, famous for his plays The Birds and The Frogs and the utterly hilarious and still topical Lysistrata.
Sophocles contributed to his society by writing plays that reflected the basic intellectual ideas that ancient Greek society was founded on and struggled with. Through seeing his plays, citizens of his country could think through their values and understand their own culture.
I only know one and that is that he wrote 100 plays and only 7 survived..
