Bacchae - Ancient Greek Play animatic
"Here's a well-known secret
about Dionysos:
despite all those legends
of his as "new god"
imported to Greece from the east,
his name is already
on Linear B tablets
that date to 12th-century BC."
-Anne Carson
I used translations by John Davie and Anne Carson for inspiration
I hope you enjoy this, as this video took me so long to make just with the number of drawings (over 100). So it would really mean a world to me if you liked and subscribed.

Euripides's tragedy The Bacchae depicts the return of the god Dionysus to Thebes, where he intends to exact revenge on his mother's family.
His mortal mother Semele had been a lover of Zeus and he was the product of their liaison. His mother was spurned by her relatives following the affair and was ultimately killed by Zeus following a deception by his wife Hera.
Dionysus, now the god of revelry, music, and wine, draws the women of the city into his cult, where they dance frenetically and commune with wild animals in the forest.
His cousin Pentheus, the king, attempts to stop the conversion of his subjects to the new Dionysian religion. But he is ultimately tricked by the god and torn apart by his followers, including his own mother Agave, sister to Semele.
Prolific Ancient Greek playwright Euripides's The Bacchae was first performed c. 406 BCE. It reflects his critical mind and shows his concern with taking life to extremes rather than keeping it in balance. The tale is highly self-referential—Dionysus was also the god of theatre so the depiction of this version of his story would have had additional meaning to audiences in ancient Greece.
The Greek tragedy The Bacchae contains many important themes, including social order, as when social norms are flouted, the societal fabric unravels; religious beliefs, as opposing religious views cause strife over the “right beliefs”; and duality, as people’s dual natures contain rationality and primal instincts.

Course Hero Literature Instructor Russell Jaffe explains the plot summary of Euripides's play The Bacchae.
Download the free study guide and infographic for The Bacchae here: https://www.coursehero.com/lit/The-Bacchae/infographic/
Euripides's tragedy The Bacchae depicts the return of the god Dionysus to Thebes, where he intends to exact revenge on his mother's family.
His mortal mother Semele had been a lover of Zeus and he was the product of their liaison. His mother was spurned by her relatives following the affair and was ultimately killed by Zeus following a deception by his wife Hera.
Dionysus, now the god of revelry, music, and wine, draws the women of the city into his cult, where they dance frenetically and commune with wild animals in the forest.
His cousin Pentheus, the king, attempts to stop the conversion of his subjects to the new Dionysian religion. But he is ultimately tricked by the god and torn apart by his followers, including his own mother Agave, sister to Semele.
Prolific Ancient Greek playwright Euripides's The Bacchae was first performed c. 406 BCE. It reflects his critical mind and shows his concern with taking life to extremes rather than keeping it in balance. The tale is highly self-referential—Dionysus was also the god of theatre so the depiction of this version of his story would have had additional meaning to audiences in ancient Greece.
The Greek tragedy The Bacchae contains many important themes, including social order, as when social norms are flouted, the societal fabric unravels; religious beliefs, as opposing religious views cause strife over the “right beliefs”; and duality, as people’s dual natures contain rationality and primal instincts.

Euripides's tragedy The Bacchae depicts the return of the god Dionysus to Thebes, where he intends to exact revenge on his mother's family.
His mortal mother Semele had been a lover of Zeus and he was the product of their liaison. His mother was spurned by her relatives following the affair and was ultimately killed by Zeus following a deception by his wife Hera.
Dionysus, now the god of revelry, music, and wine, draws the women of the city into his cult, where they dance frenetically and commune with wild animals in the forest.
His cousin Pentheus, the king, attempts to stop the conversion of his subjects to the new Dionysian religion. But he is ultimately tricked by the god and torn apart by his followers, including his own mother Agave, sister to Semele.
Prolific Ancient Greek playwright Euripides's The Bacchae was first performed c. 406 BCE. It reflects his critical mind and shows his concern with taking life to extremes rather than keeping it in balance. The tale is highly self-referential—Dionysus was also the god of theatre so the depiction of this version of his story would have had additional meaning to audiences in ancient Greece.
The Greek tragedy The Bacchae contains many important themes, including social order, as when social norms are flouted, the societal fabric unravels; religious beliefs, as opposing religious views cause strife over the “right beliefs”; and duality, as people’s dual natures contain rationality and primal instincts.
