The Fortunes of Apuleius and the Golden Ass: A Study in Transmission and Reception - Martin Classical Lectures
Julia Haig Gaisser
"The Golden Ass" tells of a young man changed into an ass by magic. This book follows Apuleius' tale from antiquity through the sixteenth century, tracing its journey from roll to codex in fourth-century Rome, into the medieval library of Monte Cassino, into the hands of Italian humanists, into print, and, finally, over the Alps.
