Mallorca Mallorca , Insel im Osten Spaniens, mit 3 640 Quadratkilometern größte Insel der Balearen. Hauptstadt und Haupthafen ist Palma de Mallorca. Mallorca ist ein sehr beliebtes Ferienziel. Der Nordwesten der Insel ist gebirgig, die Höhenzüge liegen zwischen 1 070 und 1 525 Metern über dem Meeresspiegel. Die Hauptwirtschaftszweige sind neben dem Tourismus die Landwirtschaft, der Bergbau und die Fischerei. Ferner sind die Schweine- und Schafhaltung sowie der Abbau von Marmor, Kupfer und Blei von Bedeutung. Auf der Insel lebten u. a. der Dichter Robert Graves und der Komponist Frédéric Chopin, der mit der Schriftstellerin George Sand in Valldemosa wohnte, wo er mehrere seiner bedeutenden Werke komponierte. Die Einwohnerzahl beträgt etwa 600 000. Balearen (spanisch Islas Baleares ), Inselgruppe, autonome Region und Provinz in Ost spanien im Mittelmeer, die aus elf kleinen Eilanden und den vier großen Inseln Mallorca, Menorca, Ibiza und Formentera besteht. Hauptstadt ist die Stadt Palma auf Mallorca, der größten Insel. Die Inseln sind ein beliebtes Urlaubsziel. Fremdenverkehr ist daher auch der wichtigste Wirtschaftsfaktor. Weitere Wirtschaftszweige sind Fischerei und Landwirtschaft sowie die Herstellung von Schuhen und Majolika-Keramik. Angebaut werden Zitrusfrüchte, Weintrauben, Oliven, Weizen, Feigen, Gemüse und Mandeln. Obst, Wein, Schweine und Olivenöl werden exportiert. Die ersten Bewohner waren die Iberer. Später wurden die Inseln von den Phöniziern, Griechen, Karthagern, Römern und Byzantinern besetzt, im 8. Jahrhundert schließlich von den Mauren erobert. Piraten, die Schiffe im Mittelmeer überfielen, dienten die Inseln als Stützpunkt. Jaime I., König von Aragón, vertrieb die Mauren 1229. Während des Spanischen Bürgerkrieges ( 1936-1939) standen Mallorca und Ibiza auf der Seite der Nationalisten, Menorca unterstützte die Republikaner. Auf einer Fläche von 5 014 Quadratkilometern leben etwa 710 000 Menschen.

He established his reputation with Good-bye to All That (1929), an outspoken book on his war experiences. A versatile and highly prolific writer, Graves considered himself primarily a poet; his poems were characterized by gracefulness and lucidity. However, Graves was best known for his unorthodox novels of Roman history, I, Claudius (1934) and Claudius the God (1934), as well as fictionalized reappraisals of history and legend such as King Jesus (1946) and Homer's Daughter (1955). Graves was also known for studies of the mythological and psychological sources of poetry, such as

Choose another writer in this calendar: by name: A B C D ... Z by birthday from the calendar Credits and feedback Robert Graves (1895-1985) English poet, classical scholar, novelist, and critic who produced some 140 books. Graves is perhaps best known for the historical novel I, CLAUDIUS (1934), with its sequel CLAUDIUS THE GOD (1943), autobiographical war memoirs and controversial study THE WHITE GODDESS (1948), in which Graves rejects the patriarchal gods as sources of inspiration in favour of matriarchal powers of love and destructiveness. The Muse, or Moon-goddess, inspires poetry of a magical quality, in contrast to rational, classical verse. "Philosophy is antipoetic. Phisosophize about mankind and you brush aside individual uniqueness, which a poet cannot do without self-damage. Unless, for a start, he has a strong personal rhythm to vary his metrics, he is nothing. Poets mistrust philosophy. They know that once the heads are counted, each owner of a head loses his personal identify and becomes a number in some government scheme: if not as a slave or serf, at least as a party to the device of majority voting, which smothers personal views."
