Plato (comic poet)
Plato (also Plato Comicus; Ancient Greek: Πλάτων Κωμικός) was an Athenian comic poet and contemporary of Aristophanes. None of his plays survive intact, but the titles of thirty of them are known, including a ''Hyperbolus'' (c. 420-416 BC), ''Victories'' (after 421), ''Cleophon'' (in 405), and ''Phaon'' (probably in 391). The titles suggest that his themes were often political. In 410 BC, one of his plays took first prize at the City Dionysia.
''Phaon'' included a scene (quoted in the ''Deipnosophistae'' of Athenaeus) in which a character sits down to study a poem about gastronomy (in fact mostly about aphrodisiacs) and reads some of it aloud. The poem is in hexameters, and therefore sounds like a lampoon of the work of Archestratus, although the speaker calls it "a book by Philoxenus", meaning either the poet Philoxenus of Cythera, the glutton Philoxenus of Leucas, or both indiscriminately.
==Surviving titles and fragments==
Of Plato the comic poet's plays, only the following thirty titles, along with 292 associated fragments,survive.
