Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Metamorphosis, or Golden Ass, and Philosophical Works, of Apuleius: Translated From the Original Latin
The publication and elucidation of all the works that remain of the above-mentioned incomparable Greeks, will form a new and most important era in philosophy; and will contribute, more than any thing else, to prevent the circulation of the stupid and false accounts of the heathen theology and mythology, and of many other fungous and frivolous productions, under which the European press in general, and particularly that of England, at present groans.
