"Thyestes" was written by the Roman playwright Seneca the Younger, also known as Seneca. It is a tragedy based on the Greek myth about the rivalry between Thyestes and his brother Atreus.
There is not really a father of Roman tragedy. Its development was the work of five men. No complete Roman tragedies have survived. The first dramatic works, both in tragedy and comedy, started with Lucius Livius Andronicus (c. 280/260 BC-c. 200 BC) and set the initial parameters of Latin tragedy. Livius Gnaeus Naevius begun to write tragedies few year later. Quintus Ennius, Marcus Pacuvius (220 BC -130 BC) and Lucius Accius (170 - c. 86 BC) also wrote tragedies. The Praetexta Fabula genre of roman tragedy was started by Graneus Naevius. It dealt with themes of Roman historical figures, rather than Greek myths. Ennius, Pacuvius, and Lucius Accius Lucius Accius was considered the best of these tragedy writers. Much of his work was based on Aeschylus. Ennius was the writer who first elevated tragedy to a position of status and regard. Ennius was also considered the father of Roman poetry. He also wrote comedies and poems and wrote the first Latin poem which adopted the dactylic hexameter metre used in Greek epic and didactic poetry, and became the standard metre for this kind of poetry in Latin. Livius Andronicus started the Fabula palliata or Palliata Comoedia palliate a genre of comedy which reworked in Latin the Greek New Comedy (the final form of Greek comedy).
