The Tale of Psyche and Eros is taken from the only surviving ancient Roman novel by Lucius Apuleius, Metamorphoses (or The Golden Ass), circa 170 CE. It is an allegory of love and coming of age which, according to Jungian psychologists, illustrates the archetypes of the feminine psyche. Refreshed and retold from a 17th century translation of the original Latin, this retelling is supplemented with texts that explore the psychology and sociology of gender, as well as providing annotations and excursus to help readers understand references to Greek mythology and ancient society.

Artful Illustrations of a 19th century Gernan engraver enhance the volume topically.

This edition is also available in Kindle ebooks (text and audio) and Audible.
