The Queer Dionysian Satan

In Christian tradition, Satan is widely regarded as a frightening and frightening existence, as opposed to God's elegant mercy, usually a shadow without depth. But as Milton proved in Paradise Lost, another very Gothic way of viewing this character is a long-standing villain who looks more tragic than the ultimate con artist. Matthew Lewis monks used something of more tragedies and myths to create something quite different, the image of the god of wine. Lewis presents the role of chaos creation, using all the descriptive languages, symbols, and themes related to Greek mythology, not only infringes on God, but also infringes social boundaries.

In "Greek Miserable God's Religion" (1904), and Dionysus and the early Dionysian (1921), the poet Vyacheslav Ivanov elaborated on the theory of Dionysiism. Tracing the origin of literature, especially tragedy, is to follow the mystery of the ancient wine god. Károly Kerényi explained Dionysus as a representative of psychological vitality (Zoê, Greece). In other psychological explanations, emotions of Dionysus are placed in front, focusing on happiness, fear, or hysteria associated with God. Sigmund Freud noted that his remains should be kept in Bacchus landscape in his collection and in the ancient Greek vase at Golds Crematorium in London. out

In his argument about ancient Greek, German philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche used the word "Dionician" and the word Apollonian to explain both aspects of humanity. Dionysus strongly demands an emotional and irrational impulse named after Dionysus. The term Apollonian refers to the reasonable aspect of human behavior related to Apollo God *. Interestingly, these two completely different gods actually shared the sacred grounds of Delphi. There is a gift of prophecy in Dionysus, it is said that the Delphi priests respected him as much as their respected Apollo.

Nietzsche believes that there are mainly two aspects of mankind, Apollonian and Dionysus. The Apollo aspect of mankind represents our rational aspect, tranquility, predictability, desire for order. The human nature of Dionysia represents our irrational aspect, our appeal to creative confusion, and a dynamic experience full of passion. According to Nietzsche, the best art and literature reflects the fusion of these two trends, the best life reflects the passion of control. Nietzsche believed that the resurrection of the spirit of Dionysus is one of his main goals. He said that life as well as life is full of passion. What Nietzsche expects is not a completely irrational and passionate life, but a life full of reasonable passion, a life fitting for Apollo and Dionysus.
