Oratory and philosophy from a Latin novelist.Apuleius, one of the great stylists of Latin literature, was born ca. AD 125 in Madauros to a politically prominent family and received an elite education in the provincial capital Carthage and at Athens, where he began a lifelong allegiance to Platonic philosophy. In the later 150s, he married Pudentilla of Oea, a wealthy widow, and seems to have enjoyed a distinguished public career in Africa and perhaps as an advocate in Rome.Although Apuleius is best known for his picaresque novel Metamorphoses or The Golden Ass (LCL 44, 453), he also wrote and declaimed on a wide variety of subjects. This edition contains the other surviving works of Apuleius that are considered genuine. Apologia is a speech delivered probably in 158/59 in which Apuleius defends himself against inlaws who had accused him of having used sinister means, including magic, to induce Pudentilla to marry him. The Florida is a collection of twentythree excerpts from speeches by Apuleius, probably all of them delivered in Africa; the title refers either to their florid style or to their resemblance to an anthology, perhaps both. De Deo Socratis (On Socrates God) takes the form of a speech addressed to a cultured, nonspecialist Latinspeaking audience that locates Socrates invisible guide and protector (daimonion) within the more general concept of daimones as forces intermediary between gods and humans.The Loeb Classical Library edition of Apuleius is in three volumes.
