Complementing Harrison's previous volume, Apuleius: A Latin
Sophist, this book studies one of the few extant Latin novels from
the Roman Empire, Apuleius' Metamorphoses or Golden Ass. Harrison
shows that this work is one of remarkable literary complexity,
playing off other classical forms, especially the related narrative
form of the epic. The volume traces some of the history of the
novel's criticism and offers a detailed analysis of its key
sections and issues, demonstrating in detail the literary
sophistication and complex intergeneric intertextuality which is
the key feature of Apuleius' novel.
