Extractions: Name: Robert Ranke Graves Birth Date: Death Date: Nationality: English Gender: Male Occupations: poet, novelist, critic, historian, author Robert Ranke Graves Main Biography The English poet Robert Graves (1895-1985) was also a very productive novelist, mythographer, critic and historian, with over 130 books to his credit. He was once nominated for the Nobel Prize. Robert Ranke Graves was the son of a minor poet and celebrated Irish balladeer. His stepmother, a grandniece of German historian Leopold von Ranke, imposed a rigid morality on her husband and children which made young Robert poorly prepared for the rigor of English public school. He left school at the onset of the First World War, and enlisted promptly. He was wounded by shrapnel, not yet 21, and went home shell-shocked and suffering from severe neurosis because of the daily horrors of his year in France. Graves was treated by Dr. W.H.R. Rivers, an anthropologist turned neurologist, and it was Rivers who convinced Graves that his cure lay in writing. Rivers also was responsible for Graves's interest in matriarchal societies and women in power; this interest was later manifested in his contr.....

British poet, writer, classical academic and critic whose war poems laid the foundation for an acclaimed, albeit troubled, career. Robert Graves was born into a dynasty of true European heritage, for within his family tree were English, German, Scottish, Danish and Irish nationals. Despite this, the Graves were a typical British Victorian family of the upper-middle classes: strict and somewhat cold, but also loyal and well-educated. Biographies often stress the literary history of Robert's ancestors, for his great uncle - Leopold von Ranke - was a highly accomplished historian, while an eighteen century relative - Richard Graves - wrote The Spiritual Quixote , a novel successful within its era. Robert's father kept this 'tradition' alive by writing poetry.

A new influence on Graves' life emerged in 1926 - a year before his marriage finally ended - when Robert met the human whirlwind that was Laura Riding. Attacked by some, praised by others - highlights of Riding's full-throttle life include jumping from a third floor balcony and driving a wife to madness so Laura could consummate an attraction for the husband - Riding's aggressive, ambitious and vaguely fantastic nature affected Graves both personally and creatively. Literary critics claim that Riding caused Graves to focus his poems, cutting out waffle and tangential material while highlighting irony, transforming him over the next few decades into one of Britain's leading romantic poets. Meanwhile, the events of 1914-18 were brought to closure by Robert's book Goodbye To All That , an account of his experience in World War One. This proved hugely important to the literature of warfare and enormously healing for Graves himself.

Extractions: Navigation Page Robert Graves Robert Graves Robert von Ranke Graves was born in Wimbledon on July 24, 1895, the middle child of his father's second family of five. Graves's father already had five children from his marriage to his first wife (who had died of consumption (TB) in 1886). Graves began to write poetry while still at Charterhouse School. He was encouraged in this by one of his master's at Charterhouse, the mountaineer, George Mallory, and also by Edward Marsh (who also encouraged Siegfried Sassoon ). When war broke out, Graves joined the Royal Welch Fusiliers. He got to know Siegfried Sassoon while serving out in France. The two became firm friends and spent hours discussing poetry and what they would do after the War. Graves had written some realistic poetry about the War, which he showed to Sassoon early in their friendship. At that point Sassoon was still writing chivalric war poetry and he disapproved of the realism of Graves's war poetry, rather ironically in light of the fact that Graves was later to bemoan the gloominess of Sassoon's and Owen's poetry. Whilst serving in France Graves was badly wounded and mistakenly reported dead. Sassoon was very upset and wrote a poem about the loss of his friend

(He had previously lived here with the American poet Laura Riding.) With the exception of occasional trips abroad, he lived on the island until his death in 1985.

Extractions: Multimedia Hear Robert Graves discussing poetry and writing Links to Graves Links to Works Major Works Biography Graves, Robert von Ranke (1895-1985), English poet, novelist, and classical scholar, born in London, and educated at the University of Oxford. Graves, who preferred to be known as a poet, wrote vigorous, witty, and, at times, intellectual verse. His first volume of poetry, Fairies and Fusiliers (1917), recounts his World War I experiences. Early in his career, Graves was considered a Georgian poet (one of a group of early 20th-century poets who wrote conventional lyric poetry and maintained a late-romantic style). As his career developed, he avoided identification with any school or poet and wrote with an intense, clear, and ordered voice. Several collected editions of his poems have appeared including Collected Poems (1959, 1975). In 1968, in collaboration with the Sufi (see
