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).
This is a description which can be described as propaganda. An examination of all the armies of the ancient world would attact the description 'brutal and cruel'. Similarly an examination of al the armies of the mediaeval world would attact the description 'brutal and cruel'. Similarly an examination of al the armies of the modern world would attact the description 'brutal and cruel' is you wanted to denigrate any of them to suit a particular agenda. War is 'brutal and cruel'.

livius andronicus
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.
It began in 240 BC when a Roman audience saw a Latin version of a Greek play. The play was adapted by Livius Andronicus, who earlier had been a prisoner of war in 272 BC
