    Extractions: In Search of Cupid and Psyche: Myth and Legend in Children's Literature Weeks 1-3 The primary text for this section of the course is the "Cupid and Psyche" section of The Transformations of Lucius, Otherwise Known as The Golden Ass / a new translation by Robert Graves, from Apuleius, chapters 7,8 and 9. I have made this available as a web document (Apuleius.html); for easy reference, I have included the page numbers as they appear in the edition published by Farrar Straus, in 1951, eighth printing, 1972. These chapters have been published more recently as The Tale of Cupid and Psyche/ Lucius Apuleius; translated by Robert Graves. Boston: Shambhala, 1992. Glosses of the essential story (e.g., Bullfinch’s) are available as web documents on the internet, and are recommended reading. In The Golden Ass, , the tale of Cupid and Psyche is told by an old woman who recounts the story of "Cupid and Psyche" in order to quell the fears of a terrified kidnap victim; we are going to read "Cupid and Psyche" as though it were told directly by Apuleius. Let's remember, by effacing the context of the story, we are inevitably distorting it; however, "Cupid and Psyche" does seem to stand on its own, and our authority for reading it as such derives from precedent: it has been interpreted as a unitary work since the fifth century when Fulgentius analyzed it as an allegory about Christan ingenious Christian appropriation of a pagan tale that underscores for us its mythic power; in addition "Cupid and Psyche" has also been frequently published out of context, as a self-contained story

    Extractions: In Search of Cupid and Psyche: Myth and Legend in Children's Literature Weeks 1-3 This group of questions will help to focus on the mythic contents of "Cupid and Psyche," and continues the questions given on "Apuleius: Questions 1" Questions Psyche's 'marriage to death' (an alternative name for marriage to the monster husband) occurs on a mountain top; when she attempts to slay herself after Cupid abandons her, Psyche resorts to throwing herself from a precipice. Later, a friendly tower gives her advice. Do you see an iconic significance Apuleius may be emphasizing? Or, to ask the same question a different way, why does Apuleius repeatedly refer to the symbol of the high place, and why so ambivalently? What kind of symbolism traditionally attaches to towers, mountains, trees, etc.? (See Guerin, p. 153, for example). When the "meddlesome" white gull exposes Cupid's deception to Venus, his ( his? ) description of the deserted earth is reminiscent of the archaic vegetation myths (see "ground" myths ); however, his terms are urbane and idiomatic: "Pleasure, Grace and Wit have disappeared from the earth and everything there has become ugly, dull and slovenly. Nobody bothers any longer about his wife, his friends or his children; and the whole system of human love is in such complete disorder that it is now considered disgusting for anyone to show even natural affection" (p. 122-23). Putting yourself in the place of a 2d century Roman sophisticate, how would you respond to Apuleius's modernization of the

    http://www.tazzla.org/apuleius.htm
    
    Extractions: APULEIUS OF MADAUROS Amazigh Philosopher and World Advocate (c. 124 - c. 180 AD) Lucius Apuleius is known as the author of several prose masterpieces written in Latin. Apuleius of Madaurus wrote in the language of the Roman conquerors of North Africa. However, Apuleius was not a Roman. He was a native of North Africa and proud of it. Little has been made of his "Berber" origins, and the fact that he was not Roman by birth. Apuleius was strictly a citizen of Rome due to the fact that his ancestral land was then a Roman colony, and Roman citizenship had been granted to the inhabitants of the colony of Madauros. Apuleius is best remembered for his brilliant novel, the Metamorphoses, also known as The Golden Ass. He is the author of Florida and of three philosophical treatises, entitled De Plato De Socrates , and De Mundi . In addition, a great deal of recent scholarship has paid close attention to another of his works, Apologia Defense ,) a unique document in the Latin classics. It is a piece of linguistic virtuosity, thought to have been orally delivered by Apuleius in his own defense in front of pro-consul Claudius Maximus and a court of Roman magistrates convened in Sabratha, a North African city not far from Tripoli. He stood accused of sorcery, an offense punishable by death under Roman law enacted in the first century. He was indeed a "Barbarian," as he presented himself in this extraordinary speech he gave during the trial held in 158 AD. He delivered a piece of oratory so remarkable that it was circulated in print after the trial and, fortunately for posterity, was preserved in its entirety. What subsequent scholarship has failed to emphasize, however, is that Lucius Apuleius was the first Amazigh philosopher and novelist of world fame, indeed the first African to publish outside Africa. (1) He was a "Barbarian" who demonstrated with amazing virtuosity and wit that he could speak and write Latin as well as any educated Roman, and more in tune with Greek philosophy, Platonic ideals, and ancient Egyptian wisdom than the majority of his contemporaries. While Apologia has been hailed as a linguistic tour de force, magic in and of itself, it is more than superb rhetoric: it conveys an essential message reaching all Imazighen of yesterday, today, and to-morrow.

    http://www.gml.cz/antika/apuleius.htm
    
    Extractions: Apuleius Øímský spisovatel Lucius Apuleius se narodil nìkdy okolo roku 125 n.l. v Madauøe, což byla øímská vojenská osada v Numidii. Vzdìlání dostal v Kartágu a hlavnì v Athénách, kde si mimo jiné oblíbil platónskou filosofii. Odtud se odebral do Øíma, kde si kvalitní právnickou prací podepøenou skvìlými rétorskými výkony vydìlal znaèné jmìní, pozdìji konal pøednáškové turné po svìtì, zèásti i proto, aby poznal cizí náboženství. Na cestách se oženil s bohatou vdovou, ale musel se hájit proti obvinìní jejích pøíbuzných, že ji oèaroval. Øeè, kterou tam Apuleius pronesl, také sám pozdìji vydal a získal díky ní svobodu. Usadil se v Kartágu, kde uèil rétorice a svým nábožensko - filosofickým teoriím, pøièemž se stal velice populární osobností, dokonce se mohl s jistou arogancí obracet i na císaøe. Zemøel roku 180. Apuleius napsal øadu øecky i latinsky psaných prací, z nichž se nám nìkolik latinských zachovalo. Kromì již zmínìné obhajoby u soudu, kterou nazval Apologiá (Obrana) nebo O magii, je to nìkolik dalších výtahù jeho øeèí a øada nábožensko - filosofických dìl jako O Platónovi a jeho nauce, O Sokratovì bohu nebo O svìtì. Nejvìtším a nejlepším dílem Apuleia jsou jeho Promìny o knihách, které Augustinus nazval Zlatý osel. Jehož dùležitost tkví v tom, že je to jediný v celosti zachovaný latinský román. Autor jej napsal snad po vzoru Lúkia z Patrai v humoristicko - satirickém duchu. Lucius z Korintu v nìm vypráví o dobrodružstvích, která zažil v oslí podobì, nebo se ze zvìdavosti nìkde v Thesálii zaèaroval v osla. Hrdina pøíbìhu pak musí velmi dlouho èekat, než mùže sníst rùžové kvìty a znovu získat lidskou podobu. Mezitím pochopitelnì zažívá všelijaká pøíjemná i nepøíjemná dobrodružství, která autor velmi barvitì popisuje. Dílo jeví velkou fantazii Apuleia i jeho vyvinutou smyslnost a ukazuje velmi dobøe atmosféru císaøského Øíma. V románu pøevažuje tendence až pohádková se sklonem ke komice, obèas dostává dílo nádech tragický nebo hrdinský. Nejdelší èástí knihy je jakási pohádka o lásce Amora a Psýché ukazující vroucí lidskou touhu po slynutí duše s bohem, navíc do ní autor pøimíchal nám dobøe známou pohádku o Popelce. Poslední èást knihy je oslavou mystérií bohynì Isis, spis tak získává vìtší hloubku.

This sudden change and alteration of celestial honour did greatly inflame and kindle the mind of very Venus, who (unable to temper herself from indignation, shaking her head in raging sort) reasoned with herself in this manner, "Behold the original parent of all these elements, behold the Lady Venus renowned throughout all the world, with whom a mortal maiden is joined now partaker of my honour; my name, registered in the city of heaven, is profan'ed and made vile by terrene absurdities, if I shall suffer any mortal creature to present my Majesty on earth, or if any shall bear about a false furnished shape of my person! In vain did Paris that shepherd (in whose just judgment and confidence the great Jupiter had affiance) prefer me above the residue of the goddesses for the excellency of my beauty. But she, whatsoever she be that hath usurped my honour, shall shortly repent her of her unlawful estate.

Die Zeit, in der Apuleius lebte, war geprägt von der Weltherrschaft Roms , einen nach innen wie außen hervorragend ausgebauten Reich, dessen zahllose Völkerschaften lebhaften kulturellen Austausch pflegten.
