The Satyr, the Dionysian Chorus, and the Middle World of Art

Anicha: The satyr, as the dionysian chorus, lives in a religiously acknowledged reality. So it is no arbitrary world placed by whim between heaven and earth. Rather, it is a world with the same reality and credibility that olympus possessed,. for the believing hellene. Anicha: Perhaps we shall have a point of departure for our inquiry if i put forward the proposition that the satyr bears the same relation to the man of culture that dionycian music bears to civilization.
