Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book situates the popular tale, The Golden Ass, within the literary, historical, and philosophical context of the Graeco-Roman world. The author demonstrates through textual analysis and comparison with the works of other ancient writers that it is unlikely that the text we have today is the one that circulated in antiquity under the name of the famous satirist Lucian. However, despite the work being a later composition, the author makes a strong case that the text we have today is a valuable and significant window into the beliefs, values, and practices of the second-century Roman world. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9780259069249_0
