About
"This is the first study of the employment of drama as an intertext in the works of Apuleius, covering not only the Metamorphoses, but also Apuleius' speeches and philosophical texts. Drama was an important element in Apuleius' second-century culture, with its unique mixture of archaism, instruction, and entertainment, as well as its connotations of membership of the cultural elite of the day. This is made obvious in Apuleius' Florida and Apologia, where the author exploits these connotations for self-defence and self-promotion."--BOOK JACKET.
