Bacchus

"Encyclopædia Britannica Eleventh"
Bacchus or Bacchus, Dionysus is sometimes called by the Greeks, and Romans Lieber, was originally a Thracian or Phrygian god, whose cult was replicated by the Greeks very early. Because of the common in Greece, this wine is firmly entrenched cult, especially among rural populations. By the assumption of some researchers, Bacchus - the god of Greek myths in which rituals and worship had crept in over time, outlandish elements, mainly Phrygian and Thracian religion. It is the god of heaven and the earth's moisture and causes it and the warmth of the sun the living forces of nature as well - the god of wine and its exciting action on the person. Most folk festivals devoted to him, directly associated with employment of winemaking and viticulture. So for example., Consumption of new, fresh wine after the grape harvest and the husks, followed by a special festival in Attica - Dionysius, the beginning of the casting already ferment wine was in Athens, his celebration - Antesteriya, the festival of colors. All the myths and stories about how the VA went to Aeneas in Aetolia and Icarus in Attica, gave them wine vine and taught winemaking, traveled, accompanied by a satyr, strong, and maenads bacchantes for all countries involved in wine production - all this follows from values of Bacchus as the god of wine and revelry. Tales of these have acquired a special distribution after the conquest of the East by Alexander the Great, when the cult of Vladimir was moved even to India.

  Dionysus was the son of god of the heavens and the thunder-cloud, or, otherwise, the son of the goddess of the earth, fertilized heavenly god in the guise of the shower. This poetic tale makes it converted, then the son of the Theban king's daughter, Semele, and Zeus, and is dealt with as follows: Semel, on the advice of the jealous Hera, Zeus wished to see in all its regal splendor and divine, but when he was surrounded by lightning and thunder she fell down dead. Zeus then took from his mother's womb prematurely still a child, Dionysus, put him in his thigh, and born again after some time the child gave to the education of the nymphs. According to another legend, Bacchus is the son of Zeus and Demeter and Persephone, in the service of which he is in Elevzise (the Mysteries). Orfiytsy called Dionysus Zagreus, and say that he slain, and torn apart by the Titans, came to life again, after Zeus had swallowed his heart or, in another version, gave it to Semele. This is a tale of suffering and death of a god, and then his resurrection, is directly connected with the blossoming and withering of nature during the annual cycle of time. Night festivities in honor of occurred in many parts of Greece. At Kiferone, according to legend, King Pentheus of Thebes as a punishment for the persecution of the god was torn to pieces by women, sunken in Bacchic frenzy, and by the way her own mother, who took him for an animal. This and similar stories due to the fact that indeed some women, in a frenzy and ecstasy (maenads Fury), tore up a sacrifice to God live animals, mostly young kids, and in some localities in the old days, sacrificed to Dionysus, even human sacrifices, as indicated by partly nickname God - Omestes (eating raw meat). Alien to the Greek kind, frantic celebration of Bacchus was subjected to Greece a complete makeover. It was soon merged into an artistic touch and partly to the cult of Apollo, a fanatical Phrygian rites in which the important role played by the phallus, sung as a symbol of the productive forces of nature have disappeared, gradually taking the form of comedy. Another form of dramatic poetry, tragedy, emerged from the so-called. dithyrambs - choral songs in which men dressed as satyrs, sang deeds and sufferings of the god. In Naxos, where according to legend, Dionysus met Ariadne abandoned by Theseus, and made her his wife, the celebration of Bacchus consisted of two parts: the first lamented the deplorable situation forgotten Ariadne, and the second expresses the noisy joy on happy ending. In Rome, the cult of Bacchus - or, as it was formerly called, Liberia, identification with the Old Italian Liber-Pater, - was borrowed from the South-Italic Greeks, together with the cult of Demeter and Persephone (Ceres). In 496 BC X. was built by a common temple for all the three deities, and set annual festival in March - the Liberals. Only much later entered the Greek mystical service to Bacchus, which is taken soon the nature of extreme promiscuity and immorality. Works of Art earlier represent Bacchus as the men already in middle age, majestic posture, with long hair and beard, in long clothes, with a bandage on his head and a bowl of grapes or a brush in his hand. Later art depicted B. boys, soft, tender body, completely naked or camouflaged deer hide (nebris) and in the hunting buskin. On his head bandage and a wreath in his hand Tears.
