作品风格
罗伯特·格雷夫斯是20世纪英国文学史上一位极具创新精神的诗人。他的战争诗独具特色,充分展示了诗人特有的才情和睿智. 也写小说、杂文、文学批评和神化研究作品，并翻译文学经典。他最初的作品是一些谴责第一次世界大战对生命的摧残的诗歌。他的自传《向一切告别》（1929年）讲述了他在一战中的经历。
作品
小说《耶稣王》（1946年）是一部非传统历史小说。他后来的大部分诗作都是爱情抒情诗。他的古罗马帝国三部曲《我，克劳迪斯》（I， Claudius）、《克劳迪斯神和他的妻子梅萨利纳》（Claudius the God and His Wife Messalina）、《贝利萨里乌斯伯爵》（Count Belisarius）是现代历史小说经典之作，现实主义的表现手法使生活在古代的人物具有亲近感，同时又保持了历史性。诗歌《火盆旁》（1916年）、《诗集1938–1945年》（1946年）、《诗集》（1959年）、《新诗集》（1977年）。神话研究作品——《白仙女》（1947年）、《希腊神话》（1955年）。随笔——《肩负读者》（The Reader over Your Shoulder）（1943年，与艾伦·霍奇合著）。
