Synopsis
Excerpt from Apulée: Roman Et Magie
Apulée, pour la plupart des modernes, c'est un ancien, ennuyeux comme tous les anciens, qui écrit en latin, et qu'on ne lit pas. Pour les gens de lettres, c'est l'aimable auteur de l'ane d'or, un roman savoureux et fort amusant où La Fontaine a butiné ses Amours de Psyché et plusieurs contes. Mais transportez-vous au temps de Marc - Aurele, demandez à un bourgeois de Carthage ce qu'il pense de son compatriote. Apulée? Vous dira-t - il. Mais c'est notre plus savant homme. On ne sait trop comme il s'y est pris, et s'il n'y a pas là. Du miracle mais le fait est qu'il sait tout. Il connaît tous les métiers. Médecin, on le consulte pour les cas difficiles. Avocat, quand il demeurait à. Rome, il en re montrait aux plus habiles gens de la capitale. Naturaliste, il pounait vous réciter les noms des plantes en grec. Physicien, il touche tout le.
