Synopsis "Conversaciones con Robert Graves (in Spanish)"

Robert Graves (1895-1985), inglés, poeta novelista, crítico, estudioso de los clásicos, es una de las grandes figuras literarias del siglo veinte, y uno de los escritores más versátiles y originales. En estas entrevistas nos habla de sus orígenes en Oxford, de la locura de la Gran Guerra, de su huida a un pequeño pueblo de Mallorca: Deyá. Heterodoxo, sus interlocutores son de lo más variopintos: Virginia Woolf, Gina Lollobrigida o Jorge Luis Borges, escuchan y hablan con el autor de obras como, Yo, Claudio o Los mitos griegos.

Robert Graves (Wimbledon, 1895 – Deià, Mallorca, 1985) was a British writer, poet, and essayist whose work ranges from war poetry to historical novels and mythological essays. He participated in World War I, an experience he depicted in his autobiography Goodbye to All That (1929). He studied at Oxford and was a professor of English literature at the University of Cairo. In 1929, he settled in Deià, Mallorca, where he lived for most of his life. His literary output includes more than 140 works, noted for their erudition and narrative style.

Among his most recognized works are I, Claudius (1934) and its sequel Claudius the God and His Wife Messalina (1943), historical novels that were successfully adapted for television. In the field of essays, notable works include The White Goddess (1948) and The Greek Myths (1955), where Graves offers a reinterpretation of classical mythology from a poetic-anthropological perspective. These works have been influential in the study of mythology and comparative literature.
