Dionysus

Hey people! Here Alan who I will talk about Dionysus. You probably don’t know who he is. But, As I Investigated, he’s a Greek God that he’s based on wine and ecstasies. So, it’s pretty interesting that there is actually a Greek God about wine, alcohol and drugs. I should tell you guys, that I laugh really hard when I found this article, so in every country there’s something related with this kind of things, like alcohol and drugs. So here is the main information about him. “He was the god of fertility and wine, later considered a patron of the arts. He invented wine and spread the art of tending grapes. He has a dual nature. On one hand bringing joy and divine ecstasy; on the other brutal, unthinking, rage. Thus, reflecting both sides of wines nature. If his choses Dionysus can drive a man mad. No normal fetters can hold him or his followers. Dionysus is the son of Zeus and Semele. He is the only god to have a mortal parent. Dionysus is represented by city religions as the protector of those who do not belong to conventional society and thus symbolizes everything which is chaotic, dangerous and unexpected, everything which escapes human reason and which can only be attributed to the unforeseeable action of the gods.” (greekmythology.com, 2011) So guys, this is everything you have to know about Dionysus. I’ll post next week and keep doing this. Bibliography Greekmythology. Greekmythology.com. 2000. 3 October 2011 .
