Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'The Golden Ass of Apuleius', also known as the 'Metamorphoses', stands as the only ancient Roman novel to survive in its entirety. A masterpiece of picaresque fiction and satire, the narrative follows the misadventures of a young provincial man named Lucius. Driven by an insatiable curiosity for the occult, Lucius attempts to transform himself into a bird but accidentally turns into a donkey instead. Through the eyes of this beast of burden, the reader is taken on a sprawling journey across the Roman Empire, encountering a vibrant cast of thieves, sorcerers, and commoners.The work is perhaps most famous for containing the enchanting story of 'Cupid and Psyche', a profound allegory of the soul's quest for divine union. As Lucius endures numerous hardships and humiliations in his animal form, his physical journey parallels a spiritual awakening that eventually leads to a powerful encounter with the goddess Isis.
