I’d like to string together various tales in the Milesian style, and charm your kindly ear with seductive murmurs, so long as you’re ready to be amazed at human forms and fortunes changed radically and then restored in turn in mutual exchange, and don’t object to reading Egyptian papyri, inscribed by a sly reed from the Nile. I’ll begin. Who am I? I’ll tell you briefly. Hymettus near Athens; the Isthmus of Corinth; and Spartan Mount Taenarus, happy soil more happily buried forever in other books, that’s my lineage. There as a lad I served in my first campaigns with the Greek tongue. Later, in Rome, freshly come to Latin studies I assumed and cultivated the native language, without a teacher, and with a heap of pains. So there! I beg your indulgence in advance if as a crude performer in the exotic speech of the Forum I offend. And in truth the very fact of a change of voice will answer like a circus rider’s skill when needed. We’re about to embark on a Greek tale. Reader, attend: and find delight. Book I:2-5 Aristomenes begins his tale Thessaly – where the roots of my mother’s family add to my glory, in the famous form of Plutarch, and later his nephew, Sextus the philosopher – Thessaly is where I was off to on business. Emerging from perilous mountain tracks, and slithery valley ones, and damp meadows and muddy fields, riding a pure-white local nag, he being fairly tired and to chase away my own fatigue from endless sitting with the labour of walking, I dismounted. I rubbed the sweat from his forehead, carefully, stroked his ears, loosed his bridle, and led him slowly along at a gentle pace, till the usual and natural remedy of grazing eliminated the inconvenience of his lassitude. While he was at his mobile breakfast, the grass he passed, contorting his head from side to side, I made a third to two travellers who chanced to be a little way ahead. As I tried to hear what they were saying, one of them burst out laughing: “Stop telling such absurd and monstrous lies!” Hearing this, and my thirst for anything new being what it is, I said: “Oh do let me share your conversation. I’m not inquisitive but I love to 6 know everything, or at least most things. Besides, the charm of a pleasant tale will lighten the pain of this hill we’re climbing.” But the one who’d laughed merely went on: “Now that story was about as true as if you’d said magic spells can make rivers flow backwards, chain the sea, paralyze the wind, halt the sun, squeeze dew from the moon, disperse the stars, banish day, and lengthen night!” Here I spoke out more boldly: “Don’t be annoyed, you who began the tale; don’t weary of spinning out the rest.” And to the other “You with your stubborn mind and cloth ears might be rejecting something true. By Hercules, it’s not too clever if wrong opinion makes you judge as false what seems new to the ear, or strange to the eye, or too hard for the intellect to grasp, but which on closer investigation proves not only true, but even obvious. I last night, competing with friends at dinner, took too large a mouthful of cheese polenta. That soft and glutinous food stuck in my throat, blocked my windpipe, and I almost died. Yet at Athens, not long ago, in front of the Painted Porch, I saw a juggler swallow a sharp-edged cavalry sword with its lethal blade, and later I saw the same fellow, after a little donation, ingest a spear, death-dealing end downwards, right to the depth of his guts: and all of a sudden a beautiful boy swarmed up the wooden bit of the upside-down weapon, where it rose from throat to brow, and danced a dance, all twists and turns, as if he’d no muscle or spine, astounding everyone there. You’d have said he was that noble snake that clings with its slippery knots to Asclepius’ staff, the knotty one he carries with the half sawn-off branches.

This paperdemonstrates that Apuleiusin fact refersthroughout his story to realRoman practices, especially legal practices-most conspicuousare the frequentreferences to the Romanlaw of marriage.A carefulexamination of severalpassages thus shows how knowl- edge of Romanlaw, it turns out, enhancesthe reader'spleasure in Apuleius's story.The paperconcludes by exploringthe connectionsbetween Apuleius's fairytaleand the accountof his own marriageto AemiliaPudentilla in his ear- lier work,the Apologia.Apuleius seems to be recalling,playfully, his own earlier legal success.At the same time, both works suggestthat legal problemsarose in Romanfamilies not becauseof the actions of any officialenforcers, but rather appealto the law by particularfamily members.

  • False Forms and Wicked Women: Apuleius' Isis Book and Ovid's Iphis
    FALSE FORMS AND WICKED WOMEN: APULEIUS’ ISIS BOOK AND OVID’S IPHIS STORY Sarah H. Eisenlohr A thesis submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the Department of Classics in the College of Arts and Sciences. Chapel Hill 2019 Approved by: James Rives Sharon James Emily Baragwanath ©2019 Sarah H. Eisenlohr ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Sarah H. Eisenlohr: False forms and wicked women: Apuleius’ Isis book and Ovid’s Iphis story (Under the direction of James Rives) In this thesis, I take a new approach to the study of Isis in Apuleius’ Golden Ass by comparing the novel to the story of Iphis written by Ovid in the Metamorphoses. I begin by reviewing the history of Isiac worship in the Roman world and previous research on Isis’ role in Apuleius. I then move on to a detailed study of literary allusions between the Golden Ass and Ovid’s Iphis story. From there, I explore the literary evidence concerning Isiac ethics and use my findings to analyze further the two texts at hand. I argue that both Apuleius and Ovid use Isis to mitigate the effects of dishonorable conduct in their narratives, especially that of a sexual nature. In each story, Isis ensures that her followers avoid behavior that disrupts communal and familial life, ultimately reinforcing traditional morality and social norms. iii TABLE OF CONTENTS INTRODUCTION………………………………………………………………………………...1 ISIS IN THE ROMAN WORLD………………………………………………………………….3 PLATONISM IN THE GOLDEN ASS……………………………………………………………5 ALLUSIONS TO THE METAMORPHOSES AND IPHIS IN THE GOLDEN ASS……………..8 SEXUALITY AND ISIAC ETHICS…………………………………………………………….22 CONCLUSION…………………………………………………………………………………..31 BIBLIOGRAPHY………………………………………………………………………………..33 iv INTRODUCTION This thesis aims to add a new dimension to the collective understanding of Isis’ role in Apuleius’ Golden Ass, as Lucius’ savior and as his patroness after his acceptance into her cult.

  • Flaubert, Apuleius and Ovid: the Genesis of a Recurring Theme
    STEPHEN GODDARD Flaubert, Apuleius and Ovid: The Genesis of a Recurring Theme Abstract: This essay examines the way in which Flaubert uses classi- cal intertexts in his works, and, in particular, how the rewriting often gives rise to a burlesque version of the original. It focuses on the tale of Acteon, as recounted by Ovid in Metamorphoses and alluded to by Apuleius in The Golden Ass, and demonstrates how these classical stories are activated in Flaubert’s work. By means of an examination of often striking textual similarities between Flaubert’s work and that of Ovid and Apuleius, this piece shows how a clear pattern of intertex- tual reference emerges in Flaubert’s work, ranging from early “straight” borrowings from the classical texts to later burlesques of certain of their aspects. Numerous commentators have noted the importance of the fairy tale as a point of reference in Flaubert’s work.1 Equally as obsessive, and, of course, also related to a particular fairy tale – that of La Belle et la Bête – is the appearance of the Cupid/Eros and Psyche myth as a point of reference for much of Flaubert’s symbolism.2 So well-known is the latter intertext that the myth emerges in the most unlikely circum- stances: for example, in Gemma Bovery, Posy Simmonds’s cartoon re- 1 See, for example, Anne Green, ‘Flaubert and the Sleeping Beauty: An Obsessive Image’, in New Approaches in Flaubert studies, ed. by Tony Williams and Mary Orr (Lampeter: Edwin Mellen Press, 1999), pp. 65-80. 2 The most obvious example is Margaret Lowe’s study, Towards the Real Flaubert: A Study of ‘Madame Bovary’ (Oxford: Oxford University Press, 1984).

  • The Golden Ass CLASSICS UNABRIDGED Apuleius Read by David Timson
    COMPLETE The Golden Ass CLASSICS UNABRIDGED Apuleius Read by David Timson ‘In this hapless state I looked myself over and saw that I was now no bird, but an ass…’ In this ancient picaresque adventure, Lucius, an insatiably curious young man, finds himself transformed into a donkey after his fascination with black magic and witchcraft goes awry. While trapped in his new body, he becomes the property of thieves, farmers, cooks, soldiers and priests, and observes the hypocrisy and ineptitude of Imperial Roman society. The Golden Ass is considered the only novel to survive the Roman period, and the earliest novel to survive complete in the Western literary tradition. It is brimming with slapstick humour and sexual escapades, and foreshadows later works by Boccaccio, Rabelais, Cervantes and Chaucer, upon whom it was a direct influence. David Timson has made over 1,000 broadcasts for BBC Radio Drama. For Naxos AudioBooks he has written The History of Theatre, an award-winning production read by Derek Jacobi, and directed four Shakespeare plays including King Richard Total running time: 9:06:08 • 8 CDs III (with Kenneth Branagh).

  • The World of the Golden
    THE WORLD OF THE GOLDEN ASS * By FERGUS MILLAR Those who study and teach the history of the Ancient World suffer from a great disadvantage, which we find difficult to admit even to ourselves: in a perfectly literal sense we do not know what we are talking about. Of course we can dispose of a vast range of accumulated knowledge about what we are talking about. We can compile lists of office- holders in the Roman Empire, without our evidence revealing how government worked or even whether it made any impact at all on the ordinary person; we can discuss the statuses of cities and look at the archaeological remains of some of them (or rather some parts of some of them) without having any notion of their social and economic functions, or of whether it made any real difference whether an inhabitant of the Roman provinces lived in a small city or a large village. We can study the remains of temples, the iconography of gods and goddesses, the nature of myth, ritual and sacrifice; but how and in what way did all this provide an important or intelligible context for a peasant in the fields ? In the case of religion in particular our attention turns persistently to the exceptional rather than the ordinary, to those aspects which were novel, imported, mystical or the subject of philo- sophical speculation. Let me take a precise example from the Metamorphoses or Golden Ass, Apuleius' brilliant novel of the second century A.D. The exotic aspects of ancient religion which the novel reveals have always attracted attention; the hero's vision of Isis, and his conversion to the worship of Isis and Osiris; 1 the band of Syrian priests making their fraudulent way through the Greek countryside; 2 the wicked baker's wife who has aban- doned the gods and worships what she says is a single god-in other words, is a Christian.3 But if we really want to understand how the divine order related to ordinary life in antiquity we should start from an incident a few chapters later (Ix, 33-4).

  • FABULATOR LATINUS Apuleius' Best Known Work, the Golden Ass, Raises
    CHAPTER SIX FABULATOR LATINUS Apuleius' best known work, the Golden Ass, raises a number of issues addressed in previous chapters: Greek sources, translation, adaptation and patchwork compilation. It is also the most thoroughly studied work in the Apuleian corpus. Accordingly, this chapter will be restricted to the issues just enumerated with one addition: the relationship of this Latin novel to the ancient Greek novel. 1 Greek Sources An important source of information for delineating the Greek origins of Apuleius' Latin adaptation are the various subscriptions contained in the manuscript known as F (Codex Laurentianus 68, 2). It served as the basis of all the extant manuscripts of the Golden Ass and during the period 395-7 was read and edited (legi et emendavi) by Sallustius both in Rome and in Constantinople. Whenever Sallustius refers to the novel by title he invariably cites it by the Greek title, the Metamorphoses, e.g.: "The end of Book 10 of the Metamorphoses. I, Sallustius, read and edited it profitably in Rome. The beginning of Book 11. "2 Thus the earliest known reference to the novel by title lends support to the likelihood of its Greek derivation. 3 As will be explained below, the Milesian affiliation that Apuleius assigns to the novel also implies Greek origins for the Latin adaptation. 1 Sandy 1994. Bowie and Harrison 1993 provide an up-to-date survey and bibliographical guide to the ancient novel. 2 Methamorfoseon Libri X. Excipio. Ego Sallustius legi et emendavi Romae felix. lncipio Libri XI, p. 266, ed. R.

  • Apuleius and Homer: Some Traces of the Iliad in the Metamorphoses
    Apuleius and Homer: Some Traces of the Iliad in the Metamorphoses STEPHEN HARRISON Corpus Christi College, Oxford1 1. Introduction The fundamental importance of Homeric allusion and intertextuality for the literary works of the Greek Second Sophistic is well established in modern scholarship;2 equally firm is the agreement of scholars that the Odyssey is a key intertext for the Metamorphoses of Apuleius,3 who can plausibly be regarded as a participant in the sophistic literary revival working in the Lat- in-speaking West.4 This paper, continuing a series of studies on the interrela- tion of ancient epic and novel,5 looks at the neglected topic of the use of the Iliad in Apuleius’ Metamorphoses. It will be seen that the Iliad, though it cannot rival the Odyssey in its overall significance for Apuleius’ novel, makes its own contribution to the common pattern of treatment of epic in the Metamorphoses, by which elevated epic material is parodied and lowered for the less august parameters of prose fiction. It also provides further confirma- tion of the high learning demanded from the novel’s implied reader, particu- larly when Iliadic allusion is skillfully combined with the use of later source texts.6 The most prominent Homeric citation in the Metamorphoses is the narra- tor Lucius’ comparison of his own time as an ass to the voyages of Odysseus (9,13,4), which comes very close to verbatim quotation: ————— 1 I should like to thank Michael Paschalis and Stavros Frangoulidis for their splendid organisation of the conference in Rethymnon. 2 See e.g.
