Apuleius, Golden Ass
Mary C. Legg Articles in this Topic Discussions in this Topic Apr 18, 2004
Apuleius (124-170CE) is best known for his Metamorphoses, better known as The Golden Ass. The name is borrowed off Ovid's work, but is not nearly the same, although it presents a series of tales that are related through Lucius in a Chinese box structure. Apuleius was from Mdaurus, a Roman colony in Numidia, where from St Augustine also originated. He studied Platonic philosophy in Athens and wrote three discourses on Plato, two exist: De platonis et eus dogmato/ On Plato and his teaching; De Deo Socratis/On the God of Socrates. He also went off to Egypt and entered into the cult of Isis, nearly 400 years after the Isis cult had disappeared which appears in Plutarch's writings. He distinguishes between the left-hand destructive magic which Robert Graves associates to the Triple Goddess as Hecate and the right-hand magic of Isis which has productive powers within the story of the Golden Ass. Frequently, the book has been seen as autobiographical, so much so, tht Apuleius was given the name he bestowed the ass, Lucius. Lucius is a poet, who in seeking for enlightenment through the mysteries of sorcery inadvertantly gets transformed into an ass. Curiously enough, the ass is a beast repellent to Isis as it symbolizes Python who ambushed and killed Osiris her brother-husband. The structure of the book is of Chinese-box pattern with a story embedded within a story: the most famous of these is Cupid and Psyche, frequently interpreted as a platonic allegory. However, the entire work can be seen as an allegory of human suffering and transfomation into a higher being. There are scholarly comparisons between the work and eastern literature as Apuleius, himself, refers to it as Milesian tales. There are strong parallels between the eastern influence flowing in from India and the Isis cult.

Roman Platonic philosopher, rhetorician, and author. His The Golden Ass , a prose narrative of the ribald adventures of a young man who is changed into an ass, was long influential.

Psyche - in classical mythology, princess of outstanding beauty who aroused Venus' jealousy and Cupid's love. The fullest version of the tale is that told by the 2nd-century-AD Latin author Apuleius in his Metamorphoses, Books IV-VI (The Golden Ass). Latin literature - Republican and early imperial Rome knew no Latin fiction beyond such things as Sisenna's translation of Aristides' Milesian Tales. But two considerable works have survived from imperial times. Of Petronius' Satyricon, a rambling picaresque novel, one long extract and some fragments remain. The disreputable characters have varied adventures and talk lively colloquial Latin. The description of the ...
