[edit] Wrong playwright or wrong titles?

"tragedies of Aeschylus (of which, only Electra and Ajax were done)": something is amiss here. Electra and Ajax are by Sophocles, not Aeschylus. Unfortunately I don't have time to research the correct info right now.

You're right. I got my info. from the DNB in that case, I think. What I think is going on is that these are two separate matters. 1. He got a commission. 2. He didn't do it, and he only did two Sophocles plays, but I promise that I preserved the mistake rather than invented it. Geogre 19:28, 23 May 2006 (UTC)
