Extractions: Name: Lucius Apuleius Birth Date: c. 124 Death Date: c. 170 Place of Birth: Madauros, Numidia Nationality: Roman Gender: Male Occupations: author, philosopher, orator Lucius Apuleius Main Biography The influence of Lucius Apuleius (c.124-170) on the development of Western prose fiction can not be overestimated. His Metamorphoses, the only surviving novel in Latin, has provided a model stylistically, thematically, and structurally, for many of the great writers of Europe and America. Apuleius was born sometime around the year 124 in the city of Madaura (near modern Mdaourouch in Algeria) in the Roman province of Numidia, during the reign of Hadrian. He also lived during the reigns of emperors Antoninus Pius and Marcus Aurelius. His father was a duumvir (a colonial official) of Madaura, and upon his death left Apuleius and his brother small fortunes. Apuleius admitted spending nearly all of his inheritance on his twin passions: travel and study. He was fluent in Greek and Latin and well versed in literature written in both languages. His early education was most likely acquired in Madaura. Apuleius continued his studies of literature, grammar, rhetoric, and philo.....

Extractions: Apuleius, Lucius (125?-200?), Roman philosopher and writer. He was born in Madaurus, Numidia (now Algeria). His first publication, the Apologia, was an eloquent and successful vindication of his conduct during the time he was courting his future wife. After its publication, he devoted himself to literature and oratory. The novel Metamorphoses or The Golden Ass is his outstanding work. Often regarded as a satire on the vices of the age, it influenced the works of later writers such as Henry Fielding, Tobias Smollett, and Giovanni Boccaccio.
Lucius Apuleius: The Golden Ass
Lucius Apuleius tale of a man transformed into an ass and his adventures in thatshape has long been popular as an amusing, slightly bawdy story.
http://www.geocities.com/Athens/Academy/6422/rev0952.html

Extractions: Translation published: 1947 Lucius Apuleius' tale of a man transformed into an ass and his adventures in that shape has long been popular as an amusing, slightly bawdy story. Parts of it appear in the Decameron , and it is, I suspect, one of the inspirations behind the story of Bottom in A Midsummer Night's Dream Lucius is a young nobleman who travels to the Greek town of Hypata, well known for its witches. There, a mistaken application of a salve turns him into an ass, a shape which, he is told, will remain his until he eats some roses. Most of the novel is about his adventures in this form, retaining human intellect and tastes, until he is eventually rescued by the grace of the goddess Isis. (The word "golden" in the title, by the way, refers not to any event in the story, but to the value of the tale itself.) The question which arises on reading The Golden Ass is how it survived the Middle Ages. It frequently celebrates the ancient pagan religion, especially the mysteries of Isis of which Apuleius himself was a devotee; the author was thought to be a magician, actually standing trial for witchcraft, and the book to be a literal autobiography. Though the devotion to Isis was interpreted as a picture of devotion to the Virgin Mary, this was anachronistic and bears no relation to cults in the Christianity of Apuleius' time, which he may even directly attack (one of the wicked characters who mistreats Lucius as an ass is a hypocrite who disguises her evildoing in a cult of the "Only God"). The bawdy scenes and joking would also not be something of which the church would approve officialy, yet they are obviously the key to the work's survival; they make it a fun book for a monk to enjoy copying out, rather than something which would be a tedious duty.

For his education Apuleius was sent first to Carthage, the capital of roman North Africa, and then to Athens.
