Best Answer

In Greek mythology, Dionysus was the god of the arts, wine, and theater. Thus, they felt it was important to honor him in the play as tribute. The Greeks felt that the gods ruled over many aspects of their lives and did not want to show disrespect towards the deities because the gods were incredibly vengeful.

The chorus praises Dionysus in the Paean because he is the god of wine, fertility, and ecstasy. They celebrate his role in bringing joy, inspiration, and liberation to mortals through the consumption of wine and the revelry associated with his festivals. Dionysus is also seen as a protector of the arts and a source of divine inspiration for creativity and passion.
