Quantum Physics Pampered Chef Paintball Guns Cell Phone Reviews ... Science Articles Apuleius Online Encyclopedia Lucius Apuleius ca 123/5 CE - ca 180 CE), an utterly Romanized Berber, is remembered most for his bawdy picaresque Latin novel the Metamorphoses , better known as The Golden Ass He was born in Madaurus, a Roman colony in Numidia on the border with Gaetulia, now the Algerian town of Mdaourouch, Algeria, a district well away from the Romanized coast, but where some pristine Roman ruins remain. The same colonia was where Saint Augustine later received part of his early education. His father was a provincial magistrate and he inherited a substantial fortune from him. Apuleius studied with a master at Carthage and later at Athens , where he studied Platonic philosophy among other subjects. After being initiated as a worshipper of Isis , he went to Rome to study Latin oratory. Later he travelled extensively in Asia Minor and Egypt , studying philosophy and religion After being accused of using magic to gain the attentions (and fortune) of a widow, he declaimed and then distributed a witty tour de force in his own defense before the proconsul and a court of magistrates convened in Sabratha, near Tripoli, the Apologia (A Discourse on Magic) . His other works include On the God of Socrates

His most famous work Metamorphoses , but more commonly called The Golden Ass , is thought to contain many autobiographical anecdotes in spite of the fact that it is obviously a work of fiction. Probably the most famous part of this work is the section entitled Cupid and Psyche , which has been greatly imitated by later authors. Both Boccaccio and Cervantes have taken some of Apuleius' adventures and incorporated them into their own works.

93. Apuleius Isispriester. Er zitten zeker autobiografische trekjes in deze roman.Net als Lucius was Apuleius gefascineerd door magie. Toen http://www.let.kun.nl/V.Hunink/apuleiusmetamorfosen.htm

Oud maar nieuw Apuleius De Gouden Ezel ( Metamorfosen vertaald en toegelicht door Vincent Hunink 258 blz. EUR 19,50 (pb) (ISBN 90 253 0188 6) / EUR 32,50 (geb) (ISBN 90 253 0187 8). Een integrale, nieuwe vertaling van Apuleius' meesterwerk de roman Metamorfosen (de Gouden Ezel). Ga naar intro fragment recensies of links De boekwinkel ligt vol met moderne romans, maar het genre 'roman' is eigenlijk heel oud. Er zijn al enkele romans uit de klassieke oudheid bewaard. De beroemdste daarvan is ongetwijfeld De Gouden Ezel door de virtuoze Romeinse Africaan Apuleius van Madauros (2e eeuw na Chr.). Van dit meeslepende boek is nu een geheel nieuwe vertaling verschenen. Het verhaal draait om een zekere Lucius, die grotendeels door eigen schuld in een ezel verandert en in die nederige ezelgedaante allerlei avonturen meemaakt. Hij komt in handen van rovers, arme sloebers en soldaten en eindigt als attractie in het theater, waar hij in het openbaar de liefde moet gaan bedrijven met een misdadigster... Pas aan het slot, na vele verhalen en binnenverhalen, zoals het geliefde sprookje van Amor en Psyche, daagt er redding voor Lucius. Dankzij de godin Isis wordt hij weer mens en tenslotte treedt hij in haar dienst als priester. De roman laat zich lezen als een spannend verhaal, maar ook als een ingenieus kunstwerk vol grappige en knappe toespelingen op de Griekse en Romeinse literatuur en filosofie. Achter de oppervlakte van het verhaal gaan steeds suggesties van grote diepte schuil, die elke lezer weer anders zal interpreteren het boek is eigenlijk een post-moderne roman avant-la-lettre. In elk geval valt Apuleius op door zijn markante, exotische stijl, waarin taal van de straat onbekommerd samengaat met verheven woorden, ambtenarentaal en lyrische formules, en waarin alles gedragen wordt door een superieure ironie. Niet voor niets geldt Apuleius als een voorloper van Cervantes.

94. ELECTRONIC ANTIQUITY V4N1 Nancy Shumate clearly distinguishes the auctor, Apuleius, from the actor, Lucius,and also takes into consideration the fact that the actor is also the narrator http://scholar.lib.vt.edu/ejournals/ElAnt/V4N1/romano.html

ELECTRONIC ANTIQUITY: COMMUNICATING THE CLASSICS AUGUST 1997 Volume IV, Number 1 University of Tasmania, Australia Crisis and Conversion in Apuleius' Metamorphoses Nancy Shumate The University of Michigan Press, Ann Arbor 1996, pp. 337. Reviewed by: A.C. Romano, Department of Classical Studies, Monash University, Clayton, Victoria 3168, Australia. e-mail: Alba.Romano@arts.monash.edu.au The novel in Antiquity has been open game since the genre was not included in the accepted canon and until recently we had important works on the matter - John P. Sullivan, The Satyricon of Petronius and P.G. Walsh, The Roman Novel come to mind in secondary literature in English- that have carefully skirted the generic issue. Nancy Shumate tackles the problem head-on and, suggesting a new interpretation of the Metamorphoses , she inserts this novel squarely within in the narrative of religious conversion. We certainly welcome the author's theoretical narratological approach to the novel, based mostly on J.J. Winkler's Auctor and actor: A Narratological Reading of Apuleius's The Golden Ass (Berkeley 1985), although we would have liked to see a more comprehensive discussion of the matter. Some reference to major narratologists, such as Bakhtin, Todorov, Genette, Ricoeur would not only have made the study more ecumenical, but also would have clarified some points on which the author is uncertain.
