Synopsis "La Guerra de Troia (la via Làctia) (in Catalan)"

en paraules de l`autor, és «el primer intent modern d`explicar tota la història de troia, des de la fundació de la ciutat fins al retorn dels grecs victoriosos en un llibre breu». una petita obra mestra que va més enllà de la simple exposició dels fets, destinada a convertir-se en un clàssic on història i llegenda s`entrelliguen, amb una prosa deliciosa, de la mà d`un dels més grans coneixedors del món clàssic.

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.
