The mystery religions ​

History
1 answer:
DochEvi [55]3 years ago

Answer:

Mystery religion, any of various secret cults of the Greco-Roman world that offered to individuals religious experiences not provided by the official public religions. They originated in tribal ceremonies that were performed by primitive peoples in many parts of the world.

Explanation, the word mystery is derived from the Greek verb mien (“to close”), referring to the lips and the eyes.

History  

Dionysiac

In every Greek city the god Dionysus was worshipped by fraternities and sororities and also by mixed communities. Dionysus was a god of fruitfulness and vegetation but especially of wine. The Dionysiac festivals provided an opportunity for stepping outside of the daily routine. The festivals included not only drinking wine and engaging in sexual activity but also participating in such significant features of Greek civilization as choral singing and mimes. In many cases, only the initiated could participate in the ceremonies. As almost every Greek did join in, initiation into the Dionysiac cult might be compared to tribal initiations. It seems that initiation into the Dionysiac Mysteries was accompanied by initiation into sexual life.

What is a primary source essay, and what steps must you take in writing one?
Lena [83]
A primary source is one that originates at the time an event is happening, so a primary source essay would be an essay about an account that was written at the time that the event had happened. Here are the steps to writing one:

1. You will first need to do some background reading. When you are doing this background reading pay close attention to the description of the event as well as to the important names, places, and terms.

2. Carefully read and analyze the primary source at least once, if not more.

3. Write the thesis. You will present the main idea (the thesis) followed by the evidence that supports this main idea.

4. Organize an outline. The thesis statement and the outline provide the framework for your essay.

5. <span>Write the essay. </span>
