Homer's Daughter
ISBN: 9780141197661 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 176 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In Homer's Daughter Robert Graves recreates the Odyssey. 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.'

On the hundredth anniversary of the end of World War I: a hardcover edition of one of the best and most famous memoirs of the conflict. Good-bye to All That was published a decade after the end of the first World War, as the poet and novelist Robert Graves was preparing to leave England for good.

Seven Days in New Crete
ISBN: 9780141197678 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Edward Venn-Thomas lives in the twentieth century but has been mysteriously transported to the future, and the apparently idyllic society of New Create, where there is no hunger, no war and no dissatisfaction. However Venn-Thomas is starting to find life among the New Cretans rather dull. He comes to realize that their perfect existence, inspired by the poets and magicians of their strange occultic religion, lacks one fundamental thing - evil. So Venn-Thomas sees it as nothing less than his duty to introduce them to the darker side of life. First published in 1949 and also known as Watch the...

The Siege And Fall Of Troy
ISBN: 9781609807429 / Angielski / Twarda / 2018 / 128 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 12 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...

King Jesus
ISBN: 9780141197654 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 368 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Robert Graves's controversial historical novel is a bold reworking of the story of Christ. Here Jesus is not the son of God, but the result of a secret marriage - the descendant of Herod and true King of the Jews. Written from the perspective of a lowly official at the end of the first century AD, King Jesus recounts Jesus's birth, youth, life as a charismatic 'wonder worker' and the unorthodox, bitter nature of his death and resurrection. Portraying Jesus not as divine but as a flawed human bent upon his own doom, this retelling of the gospels is a compelling blend of research, imagination...

An autobiographical work that describes firsthand the great tectonic shifts in English society following the First World War, Robert Graves's Goodbye to All That is a matchless evocation of the Great War's haunting legacy, published in Penguin Modern Classics. In 1929 Robert Graves went to live abroad permanently, vowing 'never to make England my home again'. This is his superb account of his life up until that 'bitter leave-taking': from his childhood and desperately unhappy school days at Charterhouse, to his time serving as a young officer in the First World War that was to haunt him...

ISBN: 9781609807733 / Angielski / Miękka / 2019 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Homer's Daughter is Robert Graves' novel of the girl, Nausicaa, a character in the Odyssey, who Graves believed was a its true author (not the blind and bearded Homer, whose Iliad was composed at least 150 years before.... ). That Homer did not write the Odyssey continues to be a bold historical and literary claim. Add to it Graves's protofeminist heroine, and a radical modern classic is born. In his Historical Note, Graves says the novel "re-creates, from internal and external evidence, the circumstances which induced Nausicaa to write the Odyssey, and suggest how,...
