  1. #WalterOtto draws a connection from the #dionysian #maenads and their frenzy and ecstacy to the medieval phaenomenon of #Tanzwut or in english #dancingmania.
    #Paracelsus (1492-1541 CE) wrote about this, naming it #choreomania.
    It is a psychic epidemic which forces the befallen to dance till exhaustion and breakdown or death.

    The #dyonisanorgies were probably more like religious choreomania and spiritual ecstasy and sexual of a certain kind than our todays imagination of a penetration orgy.
