The play has been read and studied ever since. Scholarly study of the play has been intense for the last two hundred years. The relevant parallel passages and many of the irrelevant ones have long since been collected and are readily available in excellent commentaries. In view of this, the play should by now be thoroughly explained and well understood. This, however, is not the case. If anything, the play seems to have become more obscure and challenging with the 1 passage of time. Twentieth-century scholars often refer to the problem or even the riddle of the play. There are at least three reasons why the play appears problem­ atic. One of these is the peculiar concept of the Dionysiac experi­ ence with which twentieth-century scholars approach the play. A recent interpreter at the beginning of his study writes: ''The Dionys­ iac includes the dissolution of limits, the spanning of logical con­ tradictions, the suspension of logically imposed categories, and the exploration of in-betweenness and reversibility in a spirit that may veer abruptly from play and wonder to unrestrained savagery. ,,2 Dionysos is understood as the god of the irrational or, more specifi­ cally, the god of the antirational. He dissolves basic principles in­ volved in human perception of the world., 173515, Engineering, 226498, Aerospace, 13647, Automotive, 226506, Bioengineering, 227539, Chemical, 227541, Civil & Environmental, 227543, Computer Modelling, 8082404011, Construction, 52168011, Design, 227544, Electrical & Electronics, 52215011, Energy Production & Extraction, 227550, Industrial, Manufacturing & Operational Systems, 107157011, Marine Engineering, 226704, Materials & Material Science, 13778, Mechanical, 226719, Military Technology, 13803, Reference, 13809, Telecommunications & Sensors, 173507, Engineering & Transportation, 1000, Subjects, 283155, Books, 14631, Technology, 14637, History of Technology, 14639, Nanotechnology, 14644, Safety & Health, 271634011, Social Aspects, 75, Science & Math, 1000, Subjects, 283155, Books, 468212, Engineering, 491336, Aeronautical Engineering, 491338, Chemical Engineering, 491340, Civil Engineering, 491342, Electrical & Electronic Engineering, 684258011, Environmental Engineering, 491346, Industrial Engineering, 491348, Mechanical Engineering, 684259011, Nuclear Engineering, 465600, New, Used & Rental Textbooks, 2349030011, Specialty Boutique, 283155, Books<
