Jane Harrison examines the festivals of ancient Greek religion to identify the primitive "substratum" of ritual and its persistence in the realm of classical religious observance and literature. In Harrison's preface to this remarkable book, she writes that J. G. Frazer's work had become part and parcel of her "mental furniture" and that of others studying primitive religion. Today, those who write on ancient myth or ritual are bound to say the same about Harrison. Her essential ideas, best developed and most clearly put in the Prolegomena, have never been eclipsed.

I bet!
"the characteristic essence of the worship of Dionysos...was intoxication...a divine madness." cf William James discussion of similar ideas in his Varieties of Religious Experience.
I skim read large sections but this one on intoxication in Harrison's book, along with most of the sections on Orpheus and Aristophanes were probably my favourite. ( )
