Paperback. Condition: New. Though he lived most of his life in the remote village of Deya on the island of Mallorca, Robert Graves (1895--1985) was conversant with the most important issues of this century and was acquainted with many of the most powerful people. Jorge Luis Borges called him ""a soul above."" Graves wrote almost restlessly on subjects of great diversity: myths of the Greeks, Romans, Hebrews, and Celts; modern science and economics; contemporary society and culture as well as of ancient Greece and Rome, of Celtic Wales and Ireland, of the time of Milton, and of the American Revolution.He was a poet of great fame, a celebrated writer of historical novels, and the man who imprinted the name and identity of the White Goddess upon the cultural language. His translations of Latin classics have been applauded; his recastings of Biblical and Persian texts attracted irascible attention from scholars.Throughout his long and productive life, whether he was talking with Virginia Woolf, Peter Quenell, Jorge Luis Borges, Alan Sillitoe, Edwin Newman, or Gina Lollobrigida, the voice of Graves remained clear and distinct--attracting and repelling a variety of interviewers with its surety. His Books-Goodbye to All That; The White Goddess; I, Claudius; and King Jesus-preserve his literary art. The conversations in this collection keep alive his presence and passion.…

First American edition, signed limited issue, number 419 of 1,000 copies. These works collect Lawrence's correspondence with two of his most famous biographers. The letters contained in these two works span 1920-35, revealing Lawrence's close connection with his biographers and his attempts to carefully control his reputation. The corrections to both Graves's and Liddell Hart's manuscripts take the form of strikethroughs and additions in italics, showing both Lawrence's attention to detail and his skill as a writer. Other matters are also discussed, such as Lawrence's opinions on the publication of I, Claudius (pp. 174-79 in Graves). The frontispiece in Graves is based on a pen-and-ink sketch he bought at the Caledonian Market. Robert Graves published the greatly successful biography Lawrence and the Arabs in 1927.
