''The Riddle of the Bacchae'' is a book written by Gilbert Norwood in 1908. The book is focused on the last stage of Euripides’ religious views and specifically on his play ''The Bacchae''. The book delves into the religious and philosophical themes present in the play and attempts to unravel the riddles and mysteries surrounding it. Norwood provides a detailed analysis of the play, exploring the symbolism and imagery used by Euripides, and the historical context in which it was written. The book also discusses the role of Dionysus, the god of wine, fertility, and ecstasy, in the play and in Greek mythology. Norwood’s book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in Greek mythology, religion, and literature, and provides a unique insight into the mind of one of the greatest playwrights of ancient Greece.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
