Cultural Dichotomies: Dionysus in the Muslim World and India

Dionysus the Forgotten God discusses myths of the complex and fragile God, Dionysus - born of both parents and a third time reborn of the underworld. Both the last Olympian and the first to be cast out. Where the qualities of his brother Apollo fit more easily into a patriarchal framework, the qualities of Dionysus as, the sensuous god, are often rejected in the Western world.
