Ovid's Metamorphoses can be described by two things

1. Shit happens
2. Things change


Robert Graves - he is the translator of the version of "the golden ass" that we read in class.



The Golden Ass also known as The Metamorphoses of Lucius Apuleius or also known as The Transformation


Lucius was the first Mr. Ed


And once again this is a frame story



Along with being influenced by Ovid's Metamorphoses, Shakespeare, was also inspired by the Golden Ass


Cupid and Psyche, in this text, is known as the first telling of cupid and psyche



The moral of a story is the experience of the story



Dr. Sexson gives the advice to PAY ATTENTION, just LISTEN
