influenced poetic and religious imaginations of the West also known as Bacchus male principle of fertility complementary to female principle embodied in Demeter encouraged burgeoning of everything alive think ivy was a sign of his presence wore leopard skin stood for a distinctive form of human experience-madness in which one's ordinary sense of self is lost Bacchae= best written document of this god= play by Euripides Birth/ Early youth Zeus- love w/ Semele princess of the house of Thebes daughter of king Cadmus came to her side as a mortal man Semele --> soon pregnant Hera= Jealous, came to her as an old woman told her that maybe Zeus's story of being a god was a ploy to bring her to bed Zeus came, Semele asked for him to appear as he does when he makes love to Hera true to his word he did burned Semele to a crisp Hermes saved the fetus Zeus sewed it into his thigh removed the stitches months later= Dionysus was born again "twice-born god" Hermes carried child to Ino = queen of Orchomenus sister to Semele and wife to king Athamas Ino- disguised the divine child in girl's clothing= protect from Hera Hera--> not deceived drove Ino and Athamas insane Athamas shot one of his sons , mistaking him for a fawn Ino boiled the other son alive in a pot ran with the pot to gulf of Corinth and leaped she and child= transformed to sea-deities Ino-> name change to Leucothea = white goddess to save Dionysus from further persecution-->Zeus turns child into a goat Hera delivers him to nymphs of Nysa there he discovered vine/ art of making wine Hera struck him with same maddness met Phrygian goddess Cybele = Rhea cured him of his madness female followers= Bacchae male follers= satyrs= half human creatures w/ erect Phalli later they acquired goat like legs traveled in a chariot drawn by panthers rewarded king Midas w/ single wish for hospitality asked that everything he touched be turned to gold asked to take it back-->bathe in waters of Pactolus river= carried away the curse gold settled in the land-> Lydia= one of riches kingdoms Dionysus married Adiadne = daughter of king Minos resistance when returned home from his travels in the east- bringing new religion he strikes those who resist with different punishments that include madness Bacchae Dionysus in Thebes = best known resistance takes place ( city of his birth) returns to take vengeance on his mother's sisters- Agave, Autonoe, Ino Sisters denied Semele's claim that she slept w/ Zeus-- she was destroyed for telling such an outrageous lie cast a spell of madness over the sisters Chorus=Asian Bacchae= loyal sane followers Pentheus- denies new religion and bad mouths Dionysus' tale Thiresias and Cadmus attempt to persuade her to accept new religion order stranger to be arrested Dionysus enters in bonds Pentheus does not recognize the god= questions stranger in a debate slander of the god Dionysus does not give information other then the god is watching over him guards take away Dionysus thunder, earth quakes, palace collapses Dionysus reappears, free of bonds messenger describes what he witnessed wondrous things women performed had Pentheus seen it she would not scorn the god city boy suggests snatching Agave= Pentheus' mother hid in ambush Agave led beasts (Bacchae) He is still not persuaded -->summons troops for action against Bacchae Dionysus cast spell over Pentheus to propose alternate course Dionysus has Pantheus dress as a women to disguise him from the drunk Bacchae women-->spy on mother and attendents Messenger enters and describes in glory death of Pantheus Dionysus made a pine tree bend low and Pentheus climbed upon it Dionysus let the tree snap upright, then disappeared mother ripped off arm= god had given power to her hand Ino tore flesh apart Agave enters with the head stuck on her thyrsus her father brings her back to her senses--> realizes she has killed her son Dionysus sentences Agave and Cadmus to exile Dionysus Journey to the land of the dead did not want to leave his mother, Semele in the house of Hades plungedin into the underworld and persuaded Hades changed her name to Thyone she became a god like her son--> joined the other Olympians loved creatures noted for their strength, ferocity, or sexual vitality assoviated w/ wet components of living things: semen, sap, milk, blood death and ressurection- motif in Dionysiac myth takes vengeance to those who reject him Lycurgus pruned off the limbs of his child Minyads feasted on their own children Proetids= similar fate Etruscan pirates- went insane, threw themselves into the sea King Pentheus- tried to arrest the god--> grows delirious and marches to his own doom Agave, Ino, and Autonoe deny the god-> dismember Pentheus even those who assist him may come to a bad end mother Semele- burned to ashes nurse Ino- went insane- boiled her son alive When Dionysus comes, disaster follows also brings resurrection and life as well Ino= sea goddess Semele= joins gods Dionysian religion quite different from other ancient deities greeks beileved they could feel his presence directly dancing, beating drums, playing of flutes, consumtion of wine, tearing apart of an animal and eating raw flesh= direct experience followers experienced ecstacy (outside oneself) when present, devotees lost sense of personal identity and became one w. the god associated with theature tragic drama could be associated w/ his tales
