  • 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 arriving in the city of Hypata, where he is warned by his cousin Byrrhena about the dangerous witchcraft practiced by his host's wife, Pamphile. Despite the warnings, Lucius is intrigued by the prospect of learning magic and becomes entangled in a series of mystical and often perilous adventures. The narrative is rich with tales of transformation, as Lucius himself is eventually turned into a donkey, leading to a series of misadventures that explore themes of curiosity, desire, and the consequences of meddling with the supernatural. Throughout the story, Lucius encounters various characters, each with their own stories of enchantment and metamorphosis, which serve to highlight the pervasive influence of magic in this world. The novel is notable for its vivid descriptions and the way it blends elements of comedy, romance, and fantasy, ultimately offering a moral lesson on the dangers of unchecked curiosity and the pursuit of forbidden knowledge.
