The Siege and Fall of Troy
ISBN: 9781609807429 / Angielski / Twarda / 2018 / 128 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych. The ancient city of Troy really existed. The Trojan War that figures in Homer's two great epic poems, The Iliad and The Odyssey, really happened. But there is much more to it. Leave it to one of the English language's greatest practitioners, Robert Graves, to flesh out the story in a very short book for children, first published in 1962, and out of print for more than three decades. According to Graves, "English literature, to be properly understood, calls for as close a knowledge of the Trojan War as of the Bible: Helen's beauty, Odysseus's cunning, Hector's noble courage,...

Biała Bogini
ISBN: 9788362858279 / Polski / Miękka / 2011 / 598 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 1-3 dni roboczych. Robert Graves (1895-1985) był poetą z przekonania, powieściopisarzem dla zarobku i badaczem tradycji z namiętności. "Biała Bogini" (1948, wydanie rozszerzone: 1961) powstała między dwoma najbardziej znanymi u nas dziełami tego angielskiego twórcy: powieścią "Ja, Klaudiusz" (1934) i "Mitami greckimi"(1955). Graves wysuwa kontrowersyjne hipotezy, które nadają jego dziełu wprost sensacyjny charakter. Czytelnik wraz z autorem tropi ślady domniemanej tytułowej bogini w obrzędach i mitach starożytnej Irlandii i Brytanii. Te kruchy tradycji zawierają, zdaniem Gravesa, przekaz o...

This bold retelling of the ancient epic imagines that its author was not the blind and bearded Homer of legend, but a young woman in Western Sicily who calls herself Nausicaa. In Robert Graves's words, Homer's Daughter is 'the story of a high-spirited and religious-minded Sicilian girl who saves her father's throne from usurpation, herself from a distasteful marriage, and her two younger brothers from butchery by boldly making things happen, instead of sitting still and hoping for the best.'

Sergeant Lamb of the Ninth
ISBN: 9780141197685 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Robert Graves first came across the name of Roger Lamb in 1914, when Graves was an English officer instructing his platoon in regimental history. Lamb was a British soldier who had served his king during the American War of Independence, and whose claim to a footnote in history is that he managed to escape twice from American prison camps. When Graves went to America in the 1930s, he remembered Sergeant Lamb, investigated his story and created this fictionalized memoir telling Lamb's story from his Irish childhood to war and revolution, weaving a mesmerizing tale of courage and adventure.
