The opening scene in a famous narrative cycle painted in the Villa della Farnesina (early Augustan age) can be interpreted as the proem to a set of novella-like stories. This is suggested by a – mainly narratological – comparison with the prologues of Apuleius’s Metamorphoses and (as far as indirect sources allow) of Aristides’s Milesian Tales.

Abstract
The opening scene in a famous narrative cycle painted in the Villa della Farnesina (early Augustan age) can be interpreted as the proem to a set of novella-like stories. This is suggested by a – mainly narratological – comparison with the prologues of Apuleius’s Metamorphoses and (as far as indirect sources allow) of Aristides’s Milesian Tales.File in questo prodotto:
