[PAR] [TLE] Robert Graves [SEP] Robert von Ranke Graves (24 July 1895 – 7 December 1985), also known as Robert Ranke Graves and most commonly Robert Graves, was an English poet, novelist, critic and classicist.  In a way similar to Oscar Wilde, Robert Graves was a Celticist and student of Irish mythology, by the influence of his father Alfred Perceval Graves, a celebrated Irish poet — with William Wilde, these families were inheritors of the Gaelic revival.  He produced more than 140 works.  Graves's poems—together with his translations and innovative analysis and interpretations of the Greek myths; his memoir of his early life, including his role in the First World War, "Good-Bye to All That"; and his speculative study of poetic inspiration, "The White Goddess"—have never been out of print.  Irish literature deeply affected Graves' White Goddess theories, specifically the genre aisling. [PAR] [TLE] The White Goddess [SEP] The White Goddess: a Historical Grammar of Poetic Myth is a book-length essay on the nature of poetic myth-making by author and poet Robert Graves.  First published in 1948, the book is based on earlier articles published in "Wales" magazine, corrected, revised and enlarged editions appeared in 1948, 1952 and 1961.  "The White Goddess" represents an approach to the study of mythology from a decidedly creative and idiosyncratic perspective.  Graves proposes the existence of a European deity, the "White Goddess of Birth, Love and Death," much similar to the "Mother Goddess", inspired and represented by the phases of the moon, who lies behind the faces of the diverse goddesses of various European and pagan mythologies.
