Více o knize
The narrative centers on Lucius, a young man whose obsession with magic leads to his unintended transformation into an ass. His journey, rich with subplots like the tales of Cupid and Psyche, showcases Apuleius' witty and imaginative prose. While humorous, the novel also conveys serious themes about the dangers of impiety and meddling with the supernatural. As the only complete Latin novel from antiquity, it offers a unique glimpse into the intersection of magic, adventure, and moral lessons, culminating in Lucius' redemption by the goddess Isis.
