The poem is basically about a person who has at
some point in his life been posed with a question
of which path to take. Obviously, there would be a
dilemma on his part and the poem revolves around
his decision. Frost s narrative style has lent
itself to a certain amount of ambiguity in what he
is trying to convey. This ambiguity that Frost has
left the reader to contemplate is basically
divided into two schools of thought. The first is
that Frost has a regret for the choice that he has
made and...

Robert Frost, perhaps the greatest American poet
of the twentieth century, has brought himself

into the mysteries of the universe (Estep 2).

Gentle Into That Good Night Rage Rage
1,431 words
Gentlemen Of the Night Acquainted With the Night
and Do Not Go Gentle Into That Good Night are two
poems about the night which contain desires, and
it is readily said that these two poets offer
easily accessible emotion in their verse. For
Frost, his emotion was an attainable one because
he didnt fill his life with what he considered to
be mundane challenges. The most pronounced
instance where my life was influenced by this
instinct was when I gave up my work at Harvard,
said Frost. It was durin...

Transcendentalism: The Philosophy of the Mind
Transcendentalism is the view that the basic truth
of the universe lies beyond the knowledge obtained
from the senses, a knowledge that
transcendentalists regard as the mere appearance
of things (Adventures 162). Transcendentalists
believe the mind is where ideas are formed. The
transcendentalist ideas of God, man, and the
universe were not all original, but were a
combination of other philosophies and religions.

Jay Parini Perhaps the most haunting poem in
Mountain Interval is " An Old Mans Winter
Night, " a poem about an old man dying in the
wintry climate of New England and alone: "
All out-of-doors looked darkly in at him / Through
the thin frost, almost in separate stars. "
The poem meditates implicitly on the human
condition as a whole, though it remains neatly,
even maniacally, focused on the single old man
here who " stood with barrels round him at a
loss. " The old ...

Randall Jarrell First of all, of course, the poem
is simply there, in indifferent unchanging
actuality; but our thought about it, what we are
made to make of it, is there too, made to be
there. When we choose between land and sea, the
human and the inhuman, the finite and the
infinite, the sea has to be the infinite that
floods in over us endlessly, the hypnotic monotony
of the universe that is incommensurable with us
everything into which we look neither very far nor
very deep, but look, look j...

Frank Lentricchia I am claiming Frost as a central

would be ready to grant that marchand " The
Need of Being Versed in Country Things" as a
centrally modern poem; one of his subtlest

through the redemptive act of imagination. The
poem opens with the evocation of a familiar symbol
and with an attempt by the speaker to suppress a
pervasive funereal attitude toward his

Simple Man Personal Life

Interpretations of Once by the Pacific It is odd
how even recent history can be an obscure and
tangled mess of biased opinions and here-say. Yet
the future can be vaguely foretold in a dark and
simple poem. Robert Lee Frost was no doubt a
magnificent poet. As the saying goes, to be great
is to be misunderstood. His varied poetry
reflected his life, because he used his life as
inspiration. We find Frosts spectrum ranging from
simple observances to profound philosophical
assumptions in his persona...
