Summary/Abstract |
A drama about the cult of Dionysus, the vine god, which involved orgiastic and frenzied nature rites.
The king of Thebes, Pentheus, imprisons Dionysus when the latter, in disguise, attempts to propagate his cult among the women of Thebes. This thwarting of a God's will leads to catastrophe. The play is a probing into man's psychological makeup and understanding of himself.
