This is the first in-depth study of Apuleius' Metamorphoses to look at the different attitudes characters adopt towards magic as a key to deciphering the complex dynamics of the entire work. The variety of responses to magic is unveiled in the narrative as the protagonist Lucius encounters an assortment of characters, either in embedded tales or in the main plot. A contextualized approach illuminates Lucius' relatively good fortune when compared to other characters in the novel - this results from his involvement with the magic of a sorcerer's apprentice, rather than that of a real witch, and signals the possibility of eventual salvation. A careful investigation of Lucius' attitude towards Isis in book 11 and his relationship with the witch-slave girl Photis earlier on suggests that the novel's final book may be read as a second "Metamorphoses", consciously rewritten from a positive perspective. Last but not least, the book also breaks new ground by examining the narrative structure of the Metamorphoses against the background of the typical plotline found in the ideal romance. The comparison shows how Apuleius both follows and alters this plot, exploiting the genre to his own specific ends, in keeping with his central theme of metamorphosis.

Cet ouvrage éclaire les différentes facettes de la langue d'Apulée (2ème siècle après J-.C.) dans le roman latin des Métamorphoses. A l'analyse de l'identité linguistique du romancier lui-même (L. Nicolini), notamment dans son plurilinguisme (S. Mattiacci), s'ajoute la description de l'univers sonore construit par le roman (F. Biville), celui de la parole qui se déploie (F. Fleck), chargée des échos de personnages (J. Dalbera), comme de ceux, plus lointains, d'auteurs ou de textes presque oubliés (V. Martzloff). Pour la morphosyntaxe sont abordés les emplois des verbes pronominaux (M.-D. Joffre), des pronoms démonstratifs (S. Pieroni). Les choix d'Apulée en matière de vocabulaire sont illustrés par les créations lexicales (M. Fruyt), les emplois spécifiques de formations suffixales (Ch. Kircher ; P Lecaudé & A. Morel), certains champs lexicaux privilégiés comme la statuaire (P. Duarte), le retour (L. Pasetti), la philosophie (E. Dal Chiele). Le logiciel informatique Hyperbase (J. Dalbera & D. Longrée) permet des études contrastives, chiffrées, ouvrant la voie à des analyses syntaxiques (J. Meyers ; B. Bortolussi).

"Apuleius' Golden Ass and the Lucianic Loukios, or the Ass depend on and play with readers' familiarity with the clear patterns of Greek and Roman stories of metamorphosis. The formulaic nature of these stories suggests that the appearance of a god at the end of the Golden Ass is unsurprising and that the end of the Loukios is more innovative. This context also sheds new light on the function of the Cupid and Psyche story, the meaning of these works' titles, and the lost Metamorphoseis on which they are both based and of which the Golden Ass is a translation"--
