Description: Apuleius and the Metamorphoses of Platonism, Paperback by Moreschini, Claudio, ISBN 2503554709, ISBN-13 9782503554709, Brand New, Free shipping in the US This book presents a re-examination of Apuleius' Platonic philosophy, encompassing both his philosophical and literary works. Its primary concern lies in demonstrating how there is no significant gap between the Platonic philosophy of the Opuscula (De deo Socratis, De Platone et eius dogmate, De mundo) and the literary tastes of his rhetorical and most important output, such as the Apologia, the Florida, and foremost the Metamorphoses. Apuleius' Middle-Platonism did not limit itself to technical works, but also influenced his literary interests. This book also investigates the literary, religious and philosophical, Graeco-Roman/African milieu in which Apuleius lived from a literary, religious and philosophical point of view, while considering his influence on authors from Late Antiquity.
