Apollo And Dionysus

Apollo and Dionysus is a book written by Edouard Schure that explores the dichotomy between the Greek gods Apollo and Dionysus. The author delves into the contrasting qualities of these two gods, with Apollo representing order, rationality, and the intellect, while Dionysus represents chaos, passion, and intuition. Schure examines the myths and legends surrounding both gods, tracing their origins and exploring their significance in Greek culture. He also discusses how the two gods have been interpreted throughout history, and how their opposing qualities have been reflected in art, literature, and philosophy. Throughout the book, Schure argues that the balance between Apollo and Dionysus is essential for human flourishing, and that a society that neglects one in favor of the other is doomed to imbalance and decay. Overall, Apollo and Dionysus is a thought-provoking exploration of one of the most enduring dichotomies in Greek mythology, and its significance for understanding human nature and society.THIS 54 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: From Sphinx to Christ: An Occult History, by Edouard Schure.
