Beskrivelse af The Golden Asse
The Golden Asse is a novel written by the Roman author Apuleius, also known as Lucius. The story follows the adventures of Lucius, a young man who is transformed into a donkey after meddling in magic he does not understand. As a donkey, Lucius is subjected to a series of misadventures and mishaps, including being sold into slavery and used for various purposes. Throughout the novel, Lucius encounters a variety of characters, both human and animal, who help him on his journey. He also witnesses a number of bizarre and fantastical events, such as a witch's Sabbath and a trial of the gods. The Golden Asse is known for its vivid descriptions and humorous tone, as well as its exploration of themes such as love, transformation, and the power of magic. The novel has been praised for its innovative structure, which combines elements of comedy, romance, and adventure. It is considered a classic of Roman literature and has influenced numerous writers and artists over the centuries.That such as fill their gorges abundantly with meat and drinke, shall dreame of dire and horrible sights: for I my selfe, not tempering my appetite yester night from the pots of wine, did seeme to see this night strange and cruel visions, that even yet I think my self sprinkled and wet with human blood.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
