§ 4 The Lost Plays
One might carry on a long and fruitless discussion concerning certain of the lost plays, and paintings that present subjects common to them. It must be all but ‘fruitless,’ since we know next to nothing about the character of some of these tragedies, as, for example, the Pentheus. But this whole question lies outside the province of the present work, and I shall not go further than to append a list of the vase paintings that do in all probability owe much to Aischylos.
