Gelos (mythology) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Gelos (mythology) In Greek mythology, Gelos (Γέλως) is the divine personification of laughter. According to Philostratus the Elder, he was believed to enter the retinue of Dionysus alongside Comus.〔Philostratus the Elder, ''Images'', 1. 25〕 Plutarch relates that Lycurgus of Sparta dedicated a small statue of Gelos to the god,〔Plutarch, ''Life of Lycurgus'', 25. 2, referring to Sosibius〕 and elsewhere, mentions that in Sparta there was a sanctuary of Gelos, as well as those of Thanatos, Phobos "and other (of ) experiences of this kind".〔Plutarch, ''Life of Cleomenes'', 9. 1〕 Risus was the Latin rendition of the name Gelos. A festival in honor of Risus (i. e. Gelos) in Thessaly was described by Apuleius,〔Apuleius, ''The Golden Ass'' 2. 31, 3. 2 & 3. 11 ff〕 but it is unknown whether it was an actual event or writer's invention.〔("Gelos" ), a Theoi Project webpage〕 ==References==
