The Metamorphoses Ascribed To Lucius Of Patrae is a book written by Ben Edwin Perry and published in 1919. The book is a translation and commentary on a work of fiction called The Golden Ass or Metamorphoses which is attributed to Lucius of Patrae, a Greek writer who lived in the second century AD. The story follows the adventures of a young man named Lucius who, through a series of unfortunate events, is transformed into a donkey. The book is a collection of tales that Lucius experiences during his transformation, including encounters with witches, robbers, and other strange characters. The book is considered a classic of ancient literature and has been influential in the development of the novel as a literary form. Perry's translation and commentary provide readers with an in-depth look at the story's themes and cultural significance, making it an essential read for scholars and students of classical literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
