dionysus teriminin İngilizce İngilizce sözlükte anlamı: The god of wine, specifically its intoxication and social influence, but also the patron of agriculture and the theater. Also related to the mystery of religion, as in "spiritual intoxication"; in Greek mythology, the god of wine and fertility. He is usually connected with uncontrolled behaviour involving lots of drinking, parties, and sex. In Roman mythology his name is Bacchus. Greek god of vegetation and fruitfulness, known especially as the god of wine and ecstasy. His Roman equivalent was Bacchus. His worship was introduced into Greece from Asia Minor, and he became one of the most important of all the Greek gods, while his cult remained associated with that of many Asiatic deities. A son of Zeus and (according to the standard tradition) Semele, he was brought up by the maenads, or bacchantes. The first creator of wine, he traveled widely teaching the winemaking art, with a following of satyrs, sileni (see satyr and silenus), and nymphs. He had the gift of prophecy and was received at Delphi along with Apollo, though his principal oracle was at Thrace. Festivities called Dionysia or (among the Romans) Bacchanalia were held in his honor; in their earlier years they were wild, ecstatic occasions, and they have often been the subject of artistic representation. Dionysus originally appeared as a bearded man, but later more often as a slim youth. His principal attribute was the thyrsus, a wand bound with vine leaves. The dithyramb, a choral hymn in his honor, is often seen as the basis of Western drama; {i} ancient Greek god of wine and fertility (corresponds to the Roman god Bacchus); (Greek mythology) god of wine and fertility and drama; the Greek name of Bacchus
