- Résumé : "The Golden Asse" by Apuleius, translated by William Adlington, is a captivating narrative that follows the protagonist, Lucius, on his journey through Thessaly, a region renowned for its sorcery and enchantments. The story begins with Lucius's arrival in the city of Hipata, where he is warned by his cousin Byrrhena about the dangerous witch Pamphiles, who is known for her powerful spells and transformations. Despite the warnings, Lucius is intrigued by the prospect of learning magic and becomes entangled in a series of mystical and often perilous events. The narrative is rich with tales of change, such as the story of Socrates, who is murdered by witches and whose heart is extracted as part of a dark ritual. Lucius's curiosity leads him to seek out the secrets of magic, particularly through his interactions with Fotis, a servant in the house of his host Milo. The text is a blend of adventure, humor, and philosophical musings, exploring themes of desire, metamorphosis, and the supernatural. Apuleius weaves a complex tapestry of myth and reality, inviting readers to question the nature of truth and illusion in a world where the boundaries between human and animal, reality and magic, are constantly shifting.
