Abstract
This paper intends to revisit and clarify, either through the direct testimony of the mythical versions of the Greek Literature, or through the indirect testimony of the cult of Mysteries, the enigmatic figure of Dionysus, the god who, in the ambiguous boundary between life and death, was born, dead and reborn.
