Reviews
With its original approach to the texts, this book once again proves that omnia iam vulgata does not apply to the study of the person Apuleius and his works. Carefully avoiding the pitfalls of mere trendiness by keeping the texts themselves as their anchor, the various authors prove that modern research into colonialism and post-colonialism may indeed throw fresh light on the study of a second-century Latin author living and working at the edges of the Roman Empire. - Maaike Zimmerman, University of Groningen, The Netherlands .. .this book offers something of value for every interested reader. -M.J.
