This article on the Greek God 'Dionysus' and the kind of 'creativity/inspiration' he inspires forms part of a series of articles entitled 'Notes on Creativity Revolutions'. The series is designed to: a) provide a brief background to writers and movements discussed in my forthcoming book 'Gifts of the Muse' and/or; b) provide students of various units I teach with additional explanatory material useful to them as they complete assignments etc. Note: these articles are pitched at first year university level and should be read as notes/summaries of aspects of key movements or ideas of relevance to contemporary writers (rather than as works of in-depth academic analysis as per literary criticism proper).
