description | The study of inscriptions about Dionysus in the Boeotia area has unveiled a particular engraving, found in Thespis (IG 7, 1787), which quotes the following epigraph: θεοῦ
Î¤Î±Ï Ï Î¿Ï…. The possible link of the motto to the god Dionysus still remains in dispute, and yet, the inscription is quite revealing about the relationship between the god and the bull, as evidenced by various sources: Nonnus of Panopolis in his Dionysiaca, Euripides in Bacchae and Plutarch in De Iside et Osiride, among others. The association between the king-archon, as responsible for presiding the festivals and as ultimate representative of the god, the queen and the bull seems to derive from the state cults of mysteric associations. Some myths support this hypothesis, insofar as Antiquity perceived the bull as a symbol of fertility and proliferation, but also of fury and danger. After considering these arguments, we will explore the relationship between this animal and the figure of Dionysus. |

En el estudio de las inscripciones sobre Dioniso en el área de Beocia, sobresale un epígrafe especial hallado en Tespias (IG 7, 1787), que cita “Θεοῦ Î¤Î±Ï Ï Î¿Ï…” . La posible relación de la inscripción con el dios Dioniso sigue siendo objeto de controversia y, sin embargo, no es tan extraña la vinculación entre este dios y el toro; así lo demuestran diversas fuentes: Nono de Panópolis en su Dionisíaca, Eurípides en Bacantes y Plutarco en De Iside et Osiride, entre otras. La asociación entre el rey-arconte, como responsable de presidir las fiestas y último representante del dios, la reina y el toro parece derivar de las asociaciones estatales de cultos mistéricos. Algunos mitos apoyan esta hipótesis en la medida en que la Antigüedad percibe al toro como símbolo de fertilidad y proliferación, aunque también de furia y peligro. Después de considerar estos argumentos, vamos a explorar la relación entre este animal y la figura de Dioniso. 2017-12-29 2022-03-16T18:11:04Z 2022-03-16T18:11:04Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Artículo revisado por pares https://www.synthesis.fahce.unlp.edu.ar/article/view/SYNe021 10.24215/1851779Xe021 http://biblioteca-repositorio.clacso.edu.ar/handle/CLACSO/27972 spa https://www.synthesis.fahce.unlp.edu.ar/article/view/SYNe021/9374 https://www.synthesis.fahce.unlp.edu.ar/article/view/SYNe021/9381 https://www.synthesis.fahce.unlp.edu.ar/article/view/SYNe021/9394 Derechos de autor 2017 Macarena Calderón Sánchez text/html application/pdf application/epub+zip Universidad Nacional de La Plata.
