Why ancient Greek comedians of course! buh-dump psh!
Actually it is that simple, unless you want names. If so, Aristophanes and Menander are pretty good. However, this is largely pretty mature stuff. Aristophanes wrote a play telling how the Peloponnesian War between Athens and Sparta ended, the women of Greece collectively withheld sex from their husbands (even the prostitutes stopped, and that was a pretty heavy business since most men didn't marry until their late 20s, thirties). Some of Aristophanes' stuff was so raunchy that it wasn't properly translated for a while. Naturally, I highly recommend Aristophanes.
There were many writers of comedy in ancient Greece, but two of the best known were Aristophanes and Menander.
Homer the blind poet.
Aesop is the name of the ancient Greek who wrote a group of fables.
The only ancient Greek comedian whose works survive is Aristophanes; eleven of his 40 or so plays remain. He wrote plays poking fun at contemporary life and famous figures at the time. His play "The Clouds" made fun of Socrates, and the satire was so vicious that Plato claimed the play caused Socrates to be executed. Much of Aristophanes' humor is crude, even disgusting, but much of it is still funny today; for example, in "The Birds", he lampoons lawyers and the tendency of ancient Athenians to sue over even the smallest insult.
The slave was Aesop, who was credited as being the author of Aesop's Fables or the Aesopica.
The Greek tragedy was the first that came. Comedy came a lot later....

James Joyce wrote Ulysses. The ancient greek Homer wrote the Odyssey, the books on which Ulysses pays tribute to.
False. Aristophanes was actually known for writing Greek comedies, not tragedies. He was a comic playwright who satirized contemporary Athenian society and politics in his works.

Nobody wrote it. It is one of the ancient Greek myths.
That would be Homer.

It is thought that Livius Andronicus was a Greek slave who was taken to Rome from the Greek city of Tarentum in southern Italy. He was an educator who translated Homer's Odyssey and other Greek works to teach in the school he set up. He wrote tragedies and comedies for the stage which were the first works of Latin literature.and was considered to be the originator of Latin literature. He wrote the first play with a full plot in Latin. He wrote themes based on Greek myths and comedies in the New Comedy style of Greece.
The ancient Romans wrote in two languages. they wrote in their native Latin and many of the scholars also wrote in Greek.
Sophocles, an Ancient Greek playwright, wrote Oedipus Rex.
They would see Greek and Romans tragedies and comedies and Roman satire.
