The Tale of Cupid and Psyche
Apuleius
Is Cupid and Psyche a romance, a folktale, a Platonic allegory of the nature of the soul, a Jungian tale of individuation, or an archetypal dream? This book provides a translation of this best known section of Apuleius' "Golden Ass", some useful and illustrative parallels, and a discussion of what to make of this classic story.
