    Extractions: In the middle of the second century A.D., Apuleius was accused of magic. This dissertation offers an essentially new view of how the trial originated, and a new view of the speech which Apuleius gave on the occasion. It points out that there is no reason to distrust the evidence of the Apology . The widespread view that Apuleius misrepresents the accusation lodged against him has no real support: nowhere has Apuleius been caught in an untruth; his principle accuser was a rash, convicted perjurer, his accusation against Apuleius was perjured, and it seems unlikely that a perjured accusation required a perjured response. Further, the history of classical stenography, plus evidence provided by Apuleius himself, indicates that the Apology would have been transcribed by stenographers when delivered, making it probable that we possess in the

43. Lucius Apuleius: The Golden Ass
    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.  
    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.

    Extractions: English 240: Ancient Literature Questions on Apuleius' The Golden Ass ajdrake@ajdrake.com Home Syllabus Policies General Questions 1. Comment on the significance of desire—both in the physical and intellectual sense—as the driving force of the novel's events and the main reason for the complexity of the narrative: examine a few instances where desire clearly makes things happen and complicates the narrator's pattern of storytelling. 2. How might the story as a whole be described as a “spiritual quest”? What does Lucius' interest in magic have to do with it? How is his transformation into an ass related to the quest motif? 3. How do you understand the less serious side of Apuleius' text—the many comic, absurd, and even obscene incidents and characters its author seems to delight in serving up? How does all this silliness relate to the spiritual journey of Lucius? 4. In particular, what benefit does Apuleius derive from his device of making Lucius turn into an ass? What perspective does Lucius gain thereby? What does he lose? What does this trick of narrative have to offer us, the readers? 5. When, towards the end of the story, the goddess Isis grants Lucius his wish for transformation, why does she give him what he wants—what has he done to merit such good fortune?

John Crowley’s novels are hard to describe. His best one, Little, Big (1981), is probably something you might call ‘fantasy’. It contains talking trout, and little people, and witches in New York, and an attempt by the Emperor Frederick Barbarossa to rule the world again, which is thwarted by a family who possess a magic deck of cards. What makes it not quite fantasy, or perhaps fantasy askew, or impure fantasy, is that its magic is invariably seen only out of the corner of the eye, as a flicker in the undergrowth; most of its characters aren’t quite sure they believe in what they think they might have seen. I haven’t read a book quite like it. It flirts with a slightly donnish whimsy and yet persuades you that a possible way of seeing the world is to believe that there are alternative worlds inside or alongside what we think of as the world. A lot of Crowley hallmarks were first seen in
