Synopsis "Rey Jesús (in Spanish)"

El propósito de Graves al escribir este sorprendente libro fue arrojar luz sobre algunos acontecimientos, como la masacre de Belén, la Tentación y otros episodios oscuros que, sin embargo, tuviero que marcar necesariamente la trayectoria y la vida de Jesús. A partir de los hechos documentados, Graves intenta profundizar en el hombre que fue Jesús, en su carácter, sentimientos y convicciones. Cuando se publicó la novela no contentó ni a los católicos más militantes ni a los historiadores más académicos, como era de esperar de una novela de Graves, ya que pone en cuestión algunas de las ideas que éstos han defendido enérgicamente y explora la interioridad del su protagonistas.

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.
